What makes *you* feel special and celebrated?

I think this is something that is really hard to know! And it can make me anxious just to think about it. So take your time, and think about what makes you feel genuinely celebrated. I rarely celebrate my birthday because this is such a hard question! For my 40th, though, I realized that what I really wanted was to host my friends and their families at my house for a chill afternoon hang out kind of party, and then to go out for dinner and let other people do the cleanup. That’s what made me feel good – to get to host, but not have to be responsible for everything at the end of the night.

So think about it. What makes you feel like you want to feel on your birthday?
