Well, its the day before my birthday. Used to be my birthday was special. Now? Just another day. Used to be there would be a cake and some presents, maybe a special dinner out. Now? Just another day. No celebration, no family, no anything
I don’t know… maybe I’m having a tough time with all of this. Ever since I was a kid I looked forward to birthday celebrations. Not mine but everyone. I mean, we would not have a birthday if we had not been born, right? Therefore birthdays are important. The Only time I ever forgot a birthday was when I had just said goodbye to my Lynna a few days before. I really felt awful, but I couldn’t make it up. I had forgotten and that’s all there was to it.
I realize that as we get older we might not like to be reminded that we’re another year older. Not me. I love to hear that someone remembered. So many wonderful memories of birthdays in the past. Not mine but others I loved and went all out for. Some of mine were pretty cool too. I always think of others before me and remembering them make me smile.
So, if you have a birthday coming up soon…
πΆπ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!ππΆ
Or as Pooh says,
“ many happy returns of the day !“
