I couldn't resist posting on such a special day. If you're looking to celebrate this once-every-four-years holiday, I suggest watching this:
It's a feel-good show about a woman who travels to Ireland with intentions of proposing to her fiance, an acceptable action for Leap Day. However, nothing goes as planned, and you are laughing almost the entire time. Thankfully, though, the story ends adorably.
This movie provides some interesting thought. Anna--the heroine--is set on a certain path for herself. She fully intends to marry her fiance, Jeremy. Yet, as the movie progresses, she finds Jeremy to be a shallow, insincere user. And, the more time Anna spends with Declan, the man she hires to drive her to Ireland, the more she feels he is the right choice. Anna's original path led her somewhere completely unexpected. Much like this scenario, we may start out with a planned motive or outcome, but then end up with something utterly different--but ultimately better.
You need to go with your gut. Try things, be daring. Follow your dreams! Events are set in such a particular and fragile order. I’m not talking about fate here, but I am talking about choices. The people you meet, places you go, and things you do and learn all come by doing certain things. You might not have met that wonderful person had you not decided to grab a Jamba Juice, for example. Once in a lifetime things, people. That’s why Leap Day is so special; it only comes every four years, so it seems worthy of such precise and important decisions.
Who knows? You may just end up with everything you never knew you hoped for.
