When you hear the word “anticipation”, what comes to mind? Do you start singing the song – probably only happens to those of us a little along in years! Ha! I also think of excitement, adventure and hope! I love to have the feeling of anticipation for an upcoming event, project, meeting or trip. I am currently anticipating my trip next week to Nashville, TN to visit our daughters, as well as try a few things for the first time. So besides anticipating the trip, I am anticipating a facial and massage that were Christmas presents. I am also anticipating trying something new – a cooking class! I am excited to share all of those experiences when I return.
If we are going to live a “Wear The Perfume!” lifestyle, we have to create anticipation in our lives. We can look forward to big and small things. A wonderful lunch date with a dear friend can be anticipated, as well as the trip to Florida. We can anticipate the first flowers popping through the ground…or if you love it (not me!), you can anticipate the first snow. I believe we sometimes attach anticipation to mainly what we categorize as big things in our lives. I would like to suggest we include other precious moments in life – anticipate seeing your loved one after time apart, tasting that wonderful dessert, reading that new book, trying that new “thing”!
Life is what we make it.
Let’s make it a little more special by creating moments that we anticipate!
Thanks for stopping by!
WEAR THE PERFUME!
