Going through ups and downs in career, personal areas, and looking at life through the long lens of hindsight
It Really Is All About Celebration.
But Gary, what about the horrible things that happen in life, the disappointments, the setbacks, the failures? True. Life can have its moments that are the pits. You can live for a period of time in the troughs of life, even in depression. I have my own famous observation, and that is you can be crying in your car with the doors locked after someone dear to you has died, and yet on the talk radio station they are making jokes about politicians or actresses at the same time. Or you can get a nice birthday card or gift in the mail and sure enough those darn bills keep coming in.
Life is a mixture of the ups and downs. But through it all it still can be a celebration. What I mean by that is that you can have an inner joy, an inner serenity, that in the universe, in the wide world view of things, happenings and events are just as they should be. Not that you don't work to move your world the direction you want it to go, but also being at peace where you are right now, and where you end up. Don't hold onto life too tightly with your expectation.
Breathe in restfully and just enjoy those moments that take your breath away.
