Things to celebrate

There’s plenty out there to get depressed about (or stay depressed about). Instead I want to look for things to celebrate. For example:

– The son of a friend of mine has been released from the Army after having served his stint, including about a year in Afghanistan.

– My daughter got into Honors Choir at school, and just completed a rather good concert.

– The daughter of a friend of mine won a regional Japanese Speech contest.

– My older son becomes a deacon this next weekend.

– My mother recently turned 80.

– Our local pro baseball team’s stadium ranked 8th in the top 10 baseball parks in the USA, as determined by Better Homes and Gardens magazine. (It is a really nice stadium with a great view!)

What things are going on in your life worth celebrating? Drop me a comment, if you’d like!

  1. My brother-in-law and his family were sealed in the temple yesterday, my son turns 22 today, and the temple open house starts tomorrow!

    I got asked a question last night I could say ‘yes’ to very emphatically!

    I need to do this more often! It’s as much or more fun celebrating other people’s positives as my own! Of course that’s kinda what got this started in the first place. Thinking about a friend’s recent good fortune made me remember some of my own.

    And don’t think for a moment, Dan, I won’t follow up on that cryptic remark…

  5. And as soon as I am cleared to talk about it, I will.

  6. It is ALWAYS nice to share and share in good news.
