Some people just don’t like to celebrate birthdays. I understand that bad memories, apathy and even busy lives can often keep you from celebrating. If a celebration isn’t you style, you might consider taking an adventure instead. Every life benefits from an adventure now and again.
Your idea of adventure might be wanted the rain forests of Brazil, playing craps in Las Vegas or just wearing a mini skirt to church on Sunday. Take a minute to consider what would make you feel daring. If your best friend were to dare you to do something, what would that thing be?
My best friend has dared me to anything from flash truck drivers and kiss random firemen at a parade to talking to strangers on the bus. It’s possible that my daring isn’t as daring as yours. That’s okay.
For you, daring might be asking your boss for a raise or asking the cute coffee guy for an extra sprinkle. Whatever you’re limits are, consider for one day, stretching and surpassing them. Our 30s will be full of adventure so we might as well get off to a great start.
Make a list of 5 things you would consider an adventure. If you can’t think of anything, ask your best friend to think of 5 dares. Write them down, then for your birthday, go out and do them.
If you can’t take a travel adventure – because really, a weekend in Paris sounds like an adventure to me – then choose an adventure closer to home. Whatever you do, just do something daring.
Your heart will pound, your blood will move and in the end, you’ll laugh your ass off!
