In the last 30 years I’m proud of/grateful for: my first instinct is always to look for the best in people.
This goes with being an optimistic person, but I truly do look for good and always assume the best of people until they give me reason to think otherwise. Sometimes I’m disappointed (in college I was disappointed a lot), but I feel like the majority of time this outlook serves me well and I am able to enjoy and appreciate the people I meet, in whatever extended or limited context our friendship has.
How I celebrated: I had a fun afternoon on Monday with my coworkers setting up for Tuesday’s open house. There was a lot of laughter and I appreciate that we are able to have fun working together.
