Hey Everyone! I hope y’all are having a wonderful day! Welcome to the WEEK 17 of “FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION” Challenge! *Happy Thursday*
ABOUT THE CHALLENGE
Every Thursday, I will pick up a “prompt word” to be acted upon by y’all. You are free to go wild with your imagination and interpret the “prompt” in any way that you like – photo, prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, quotes, articles or drawing/painting – whatever works for you!
In short, it’s all about you being the BOSS and choosing the best way possible to express and depict your understanding of the prompt and go berserk!
TOPIC FOR TODAY : CELEBRATION/CELEBRATE
Here’s my take on it –
“People of our time are losing the power of celebration. Instead of celebrating we seek to be amused or entertained. Celebration is an active state, an act of expressing reverence or appreciation. To be entertained is a passive state–it is to receive pleasure afforded by an amusing act or a spectacle.. Celebration is a confrontation, giving attention to the transcendent meaning of one’s actions.”
“Celebrate who you are in your deepest heart. Love yourself and the world will love you.”
–
“You are not a burden to be endured. You are an asset to be desired, preserved and celebrated.”
–
“Life is a celebration. Consider everything that makes you happy as a gift from God and say, ‘Thank you.”
– The Perfume of Silence
“The day you start to admit you are responsible for your actions, is the day your real life begins. Celebrate it.”
– Let’s Go to the Next Level
So there you have it folks – my comprehension of the word CELEBRATION.
Well y’all, what do you translate CELEBRATION as? Does it remind you of a CELEBRATION that you took part in? Or do you look at CELEBRATION as a “rude” nudge at all your concealed memories? Or are you one of the kinds who CELEBRATES life as it comes? Hit me up and share!
