Brilliant Celebrations

Talking to my friend Teresa Funke today and was inspired by her fun idea for celebrating her birthday.

Buy one lottery ticket for every year of her life and give those tickets to anyone she meets.

Celebration is a central part of our life together as humans. It's a central aspect of living in community and we are unique as a species in that we look for reasons to celebrate - milestones, rites of passage, getting up in the morning - celebration is a human thing.

As I've gotten older, celebration has become a much more important thing to remember. I haven't always been good at it, and it still feels awkward, but it matters. More in the Coffee Break about that.

A great way to celebrate Teresa would be to buy her book, Bursts of Brilliance for a Creative Life here: https://www.teresafunke.com/product/bursts-of-brilliance/
