Unusual day


Today is an unusual day. There are many tales about what can/will/does happen on February 29th, but the one I love the most is this one:

"Should any woman propose a marriage to a man, her offer will be accepted and her marriage will bloom from year to year. It is believed that the sky opens and gods of Fortune and Luck descend on this day to assist those in need"


Not bad, don't you think? I say, how about men go ahead and keep proposing too? I am sure that the gods will be favorable to them as well. But, ladies - fear not! If not a proposal, then at the very least " I love you " or a romantic evening must make an appearance.

And for those that are still awaiting for love - how about something you've been wanting to do for a while? Something you keep putting off or talking yourself out of? Do it today, for yourself , and nobody else.

After all, February 29th appears once every four years. And since this is an unusual day, Living Notes extends a proposition to open a new door - whether of opportunity or just some fun. I say - seize the day!

February 29th will always have a special place in my heart. My dear grandmother was born right as first minutes of the 29th have taken charge. She youngest from the twins. Her birthday celebration was always special - 3 years it fell on 28th, with her twin sister. And on the fourth she had a day to herself. How very interesting is her story, don't you think?

What are you going to do today? Have you done something in the past that was special?

  1. That is an interesting story about your grandmother's birthday :) That would be magical to have twins but every 4 years they celebrate on different days.
