| Birthday
Present
Birthdays often carry a negative connotation—especially
for those age 40 and older! This annual event reminds us
of another year gone by in the inevitable march of time toward
the end of life—whenever that might be.
However, birthdays can be your friend, spiritually speaking.
Your birthday can offer an unforgettable reminder each year
to ask yourself an important question: What is the most important
lesson I have learned about life?
And your birthday offers a great opportunity to share your
answer with someone else.
If
you don’t have an answer, or don’t have someone
to share your answer with, take the time for a spiritual audit.
(See the Spiritual Audit tool
for more information.)
Consider
writing your answer down each year to help keep track of the
direction in which your spiritual life is evolving.
