As I say in the post, this year brought me each of you, and still many others. You have all impacted me, influenced me in such a profound way that can't be measured, but I believe can certainly be seen and felt. To be able to celebrate you -- your adventures, your changes, your big and little moments that really aren't so little at all -- has made this ride well worth it. Cheers to you...May you continue to celebrate every moment, because every moment matters. <em> Note: Entries to the giveaway are now closed; the winner will be posted this evening. Really, you're all winners in my book ;) Good luck! </em> Thanks to everyone for sharing their celebration story! As I say in the post, this year brought me each of you, and still many others.

To be able to celebrate you — your adventures, your changes, your big and little moments that really aren’t so little at all — has made this ride well worth it.

Cheers to you…May you continue to celebrate every moment, because every moment matters.

I am celebrating this semester due to the fact that my hard work is paying off...I've been working hard the past three years in college. I am now a senior. Last year I took on a lot...three leadership positions in three different student organizations, 18 credit hours and a part time job. Oh yeah, and somewhere in there I was supposed to have a life. Then I moved out of state for the summer (where I knew absolutely nobody and moved in with a roommate I had never met). It was incredibly stressful, but well worth it. So I'm celebrating the start of my career and the fact that I am living a great life. Happy birthday!

As I've followed your site more closely, I've definitely come to appreciate and admire YOU and the path you are forging for yourself. I also love the work that you do on Typescript to challenge creative writers and cultivate a community for us. As for me, I'm happy for lots of things this month. I had my first party at my townhouse (almost a year later,) spent Labor Day on a boat in the Atlantic Ocean, met up with a couple of my online/blog people or chatted/emailed with folks more, will have finished my blog redesign, and have started doing a couple preparatory things for a big change I have coming next summer. Yeah, there's definitely a lot to celebrate...thanks for giving us all the opportunity to do just that! Happy (early) Birthday first off!

At the store where I bought it, the lady behind the counter asked me, "Oh, is it her birthday? Anniversary?" To both I said, "No." "Oh, a love gift?" I smiled. "Yep. Just 'cause." She smiled back and asked, "How long have you been married?" When I replied, "Erm...over 11 years," she looked a bit shocked, then stated that her husband would hear about this one tonight. I'm celebrating today, merely because I can. That's a good enough reason to do so, I think. I bought my wife a glass trinket today.

It's been a process of steps, but I, too have arrived. My life is in a much better place than it was then. I'm amazed at the friends who are still with me, and I've picked up some more amazing friends along the way. The celebration is life itself!
