DPF #10- 2/27/21- Treat Every Day as a Birthday

Whenever you celebrate a birthday, whether your own, a family member’s, a friend’s, or a stranger’s- you celebrate not only their existence, but your connection to them. Even better, treat every day as a birthday- with every single person you encounter- with respect, acknowledgement, and a smile. Make everyone feel your inner warmth, especially on those cold, windy, winter days. Be mindful not to objectify them for your own pleasure through socialization or unwarranted conversation. Respect their privacy and space, but at the same time- share your warmth for them, and celebrate their existence and your connection to them with a smile.
