Thirteen Gifts I'm Giving Myself for my 38th Birthday 1. The gift of kindness and appreciation toward my body--instead of constant mental abuse and physical neglect. 2. The gift of movement--daily walks, yoga, stretching, dancing, pacing, whatever--with no expectations or "exercise" rules attached. 3. The gift of plentious water. 4. The gift of available fresh fruit and vegetables. 5. The gift of permission to do one thing at a time, to throw multi-tasking out the window. 6. The gift of deliberate time for meditation. 7. The gift of permission to play without producing something profitable or worthwhile. 8. The gift of permission to wholeheartedly enjoy the things I really love instead of the ones I think I ought to love. 9. The gift of permission to think the experts and important people are idiots. 10. The gift of self-encouragement instead of self-beration. 11. The gift of acceptance--not fighting or feeling guilty about my limitations, but learning the subtle freedoms that lie within them and glorying in those. 12. The gift of hearty approval to be nobody. 13. The gift of hiddenness, willingly given.

What?!? You don't know when your own evil twin's birthday is?! After 5 years?!?! I am hurt! I am cut to the quick! Behold, I bleed!!!
:::insert dramatic, teary swoon here:::
(It's January 29th. Sunday.) :)
The link in your post didn't go to your 13 list; it went to Krisco's. But hopefully this one will work better.
Happy Birthday Cindy. I'm writing some reflections on one of your earlier posts. Look for it under "Okay, so I lied."
Good list! I will be saving it for my 37th coming up in November.
Connie--I looked. You are, as usual, onto something. I'm going to ponder further.
Mark--It's my belief that celebrating birthdays is legitimate anytime within a six month time period of the actual day. So happy 36th to you!
