Milestone Reached: Time to Celebrate

April 12, 2008 by Michael Berkens

When it comes to special occasions I have found there are two types of people.

Those who take it in stride.

Those who celebrate.

Some people let their birthday’s pass, their anniversaries, their special achievements.

They treat it like any other day.

Other’s celebrate such occasions.

There is no wrong or right answer, only what you feel.

I have always been one those who celebrate occasions, victories, achievement.

My team is in the finals, I am there.

None of these are easy or taken for granted.

There are people who have been Chicago Cubs Fans for 50 years, that have never seen their team win.

It’s not easy.

It’s rare.

So are personal accomplishments.

Personal victories and accomplishment should be celebrated.

My 20th anniversary is next week and I’m an off to celebrate and enjoy this milestone.

Over the next week my postings will be light.

For you on the fence on this issue I urge you to see the light, enjoy your personal moments.

Life is short.

We all know people whose time was cut tragically short.

So celebrate time.

Celebrate achievement.

Celebrate your life, your love, your family.

If you had a problem of great magnitude, your attention would be focused 100% on it.

Milestones and achievements should be celebrated likewise.

Life is not easy.

So if you have made it another year, it’s time to celebrate.

With the divorce rate at 50% if you made it another year, happy, celebrate.

I’ll see you all on the flipside of 20 years.

Wow

Can’t believe it

Seems like just yesterday.

Just like my parents told me it would be.

It goes by in a wink of an eye.

Take time to enjoy the ride folks.

It’s all we really got.

    Michael,

    God’s Word says ” Life is but a vapor “.

    God sure knew what he was talking about.

    Enjoy your wife!
    Because she’s the only one willing to change
    your diapers when you are old.

    Met a couple the other nite at Red Lobster
    and it was their 67th anniversary. I
    thought to my self ” Wow, how many couples
    will be able to claim that notable 20 years
    from now. ”

    Enjoy the wife of your youth, Michael.

    Congratulations, Michael.

    In a country (and much of the Western world) where so many people give up on their marriages for all the wrong reasons (ie “I’m bored,” “We’ve grown apart,” “We don’t love each other anymore, “I don’t want to be married anymore,” “It’s too hard/too much work,” etc); and with little regard for (when applicable) their children (“Oh, they’ll be O.K.”), it’s good that you two have done what God calls us all to do…stay true to our marriage commitments.

    Having nothing to do with domains or business, this is one of your most important, and valuable, posts.

    Yeah I am a bit like this – make the Most in this life because that is ALL there is.

    Life is worth living WELL – being a slave to materialistic possesions is a form of INSECURITY that takes the FREEDOM away of the individual – Celebrate when it’s time to celebrate and work hard when it’s time to work hard (there is a time and place for EVERYTHING).
