Today is 29th February, a day that comes once every four years and for this blog, it’s a first such day.
What did you do today to make it special? Did you take a day off or did you party to celebrate?
Let me tell you, I did nothing special cos I believe every day is special. Your attitude makes it special and how you deal with it makes it memorable.
It’s important to be a better person than you were yesterday and learn something new each day. It’s wonderful make someone smile and leave you feeling better.
When I tell you this today, I am also reminding myself to make every day special.
Writing for #MicroblogMondays today. Also tagging this post to the Daily Post Prompt Leap.

Love! What a great way to celebrate an extra day by making it extra special. I really think it should be a holiday, a chance to do something you don’t normally have time to do, like a flex day. Today was really no different than any other day for me, no special event or traditions or anything. But I have four years to come up with something for the next one… Ha!

When I saw the message on Facebook about making 29th Feb a special day, I thought what does Facebook want me to do with this day, how can I make it special. It went off like any other day. Reading your post makes me realize – Oh yes that was the first such day for my blog too and it will come back in another 4 years time as I am going nowhere from the blogging space 🙂

29th February is a very special day for devotees and disciples of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. So here in Pondicherry Ashram it is celebrated as a Darshan day. So for us it was definitely a special day, much more special than all the other days 🙂 I even did a post about it.

That’s a great philosophy.

It’s a good idea to make every day special whatever that definition may mean for you. I took the day off not because it was the 29th but because I just wanted to chill.

Well said, Parul! Make everyday special! I didn’t do anything great either! Regular routine day, only tried remembering what I did on the last 29th Feb…couldn’t remember, must have been equally insignificant! 😉

I didn’t do anything special. The day was actually pretty terrible, and then it got away from me. Maybe I’ll plan a do-over 4 years from now?

Excellent idea, Parul! I felt bad that I didn’t do anything to commemorate the day, but I like the thought of instead focusing on making every day special. Thank you!

Lovely message. 🙂 Wanted to make it a different day but ended up doing the regular, mundane stuff. 😀 So I guess, only the variety in my thought counts as something ‘different’ for the leap day.

And I have no one to propose to now! Ha ha – I’m referring to the Irish tradition of girls proposing to guys on this day.

It would surely have been a special day for those who celebrate their birthdays on this day ;).
But for me it was just a normal mundane day like any other.
