Today was a "snow day" in the DMV area, so I teleworked from home. While working, of course, the television was on and man, daytime television is awful! My set got stuck on The Wendy Williams Show and her guest was Whoopi Goldberg. The show was previously taped and aired back in November 2013. Although difficult to watch - between work and it just being daytime television, something that Whoopi Goldberg said resonated with me. Wendy was going on about turning 50 (at the time of the show she was 49 and may still be) and asked Whoopi how she prepared herself for that magical age (not her exact words), Whoopi's response was that the alternative is not of interest, so why not celebrate the gift of turning 50. I love that! She further lamented about the fact that so many others didn't and don't make it to this age... the segment was SO in line with how I've been thinking lately. Everything isn't exactly how I want it to be, but dammit I am going to celebrate every day God gives me (even if I'm the only one who knows I'm celebrating -- after all, it is an act that comes from my heart).
I choose to be happy; even to the point where I might just go outside and skip... tomorrow <wink, wink>.
Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!!
