I've been blogging for several years and have even spoken to large groups of business people about the importance of blogging. Today, however, I find myself at a complete loss for how to start a blog for The Birthday Project. If you could open up my heart and actually see inside, to the part that holds the dreams, passion and deepest purpose of ourselves, you would find The Birthday Project. Giving of ourselves as a means of celebrating big things like birthdays, anniversaries, holidays....taking the focus off the what we don't like; aging, materialism, missing those we wish were with us to celebrate, overspending on things that don't matter, emptiness and replacing it with what fulfills us; making people smile, surprises, being witness to real joy, making eye contact with perfect strangers, slowing down, kindness, transparency, goodness, love.
The Birthday Project is about more than performing random acts of kindness to coordinate with how many years old you are. It's about recognizing that we are all here for a reason that is bigger than ourselves. The Birthday Project is the vehicle that will change personal priorities, family traditions, and cultural celebrations for generations to come. It's about remembering, in the midst of all our busyness, that the day we were born matters. That WE matter and we are called to remind others that they do too.
