I hope you all have been enjoying the beginning of my favorite month! When I was younger, this month always meant that we were in the month of presents, birthday cake, celebrations and more presents. One of my favorite gifts is a bouquet of flowers like this one I got for last years birthday. I was honestly a kid who couldn’t get enough presents no matter how many amazing things my friends and family picked out for me. As I have gotten older (turning 33 on Friday!) I have felt a huge shift when it comes to my birthday. It is no longer a time for me to sit back and take, take, take. It is more a time of deep reflection where I acknowledge all I have been given throughout the entire last year.
I do this reflection pretty early on, as soon as the year begins, I know that in just a few short months it will be my birthday. Reflecting on the past has always brought me a lot of valuable insights that has helped me to create the life I want to live. I try to learn from my challenges and moments of being irrational or seek more of the moments of pure bliss. It’s all valuable. While looking at the past has always provided a lot for me, I find that declaring how I want my upcoming year to be is just as valuable.
For my 33rd year it has become really clear, that I don’t want my life to be all about ME. I want to thank God in as many ways as possible, for all I have been blessed with. My community of Beauties, my ability to be a full-time entrepreneur, the insane amazing friends + soul sisters in my life, my devoted and loving parents, my generous and caring brother, my health, and the list could honestly go on for days. So this year, I am starting something that means so much to me and I hope you will join me! I have decided to dedicate every year I am alive, starting with this year, to someone else who needs more love and support then I do.
My Birthday Giveback this year is…..to build a . The school will say “From The Friends And Family of Bella Life” so it really will be from all of us – how cool is that?!
Thank you so much for making this year such a special one for me Beauties, I couldn’t love you more.
Love Always,
