We may not always look forward to the last weekend of summer, but we revel in having that extra day off to refresh and recharge our batteries. Let us celebrate the success we have created in our lives: Happy Labor Day!

As we move towards September, we begin our long drawn out goodbyes to summer. I have to rummage around for last years sweater when the temperature begins to drop just slightly. Labor Day, September 1 this year kicks off with a three-day weekend, and there is no better way to change seasons.

Did you know that the Labor Day holiday was initially enacted as tribute to the contribution of the working people? My good friend, Fred is a true supporter of the working people, always looking for ways to improve the way of life for fellow citizens.

Canada was the first to celebrate the holiday and America followed suit in 1882. High society folks believe this constitutes the last day to fashionably wear white until the following year. Personally, I enjoy white at all times of the year.

This month has been nonstop happiness. August is the month of smiles; let those cheek-to-cheek grins, shine bright! The best way to make a person feel special is to send a special card with a heartfelt note. Sentimental words will upgrade a day from mediocre to magnificent in just those few short minutes it took you to send them.

Smiling and celebrating the joys of success and happiness is what this last weekend of summer is all about. Don’t just say goodbye to summer, say hello to a new season!
