Birthdays

  

             Ohh the day when you were born!! The first time those tiny little eyes opened up to see the world. Those small hands trying to hold onto the mother's fingers. Looking around and smiling at almost everyone.. That one beautiful day that you just don't very much remember or know about but your parents and a few relatives would. 

            That day you were born not just by chance but for a purpose that you might have found or will find out sooner or later. Every year this day reminds you of how long you have lived . You can look back to what you were a year ago and how much you have changed. 

            With each passing year your excitement for your own birthday generally gets reduced, though your family and a few close friends will always be hyped. They are the people trying to plan the day out to make it special and memorable for you. 

           They'd do all sort of stuff party, video calls ,midnight wishes, social media posts , stories , status updates, posting all your weird pictures, small surprises, presents, greetings, cute little messages filled with lots of love n blessings, .ohh! and how can we forget the birthday cake, decorations , the delicious food and house visits!! 

                Those people will do all sort of stuff to keep you all happy at least for that one particular day. You've got your phone ringing and messages popping up the whole day. You go on the whole day just saying thank you to every single person . It's like you pick up the phone and then say thank you , you open the messages and say thank you, you open the present and say thank you. You open the door ... kaboom!! someone's here to wish you and then you fire another thank you at them. 

             You get soo much attention on your birthday and then go off to sleep at night, all tired and happy .Wake up next day again, just as a normal day, back on your normal stuff and everything returns to just how it was before. Nothing special or important happening , no extra attention, but this time you've got a whole bunch of new memories and a glimpse of how many people care about you .  

           The number of people who wish on your birthday change, so do the people but, you'll always have a few people sticking along with you every time and those are the real gems that you've found.. 

             So what actually makes a birthday special ??

Is it the party? The food? The celebration? The person? The efforts? The love ? The people? The gifts? The surprises? 

Well, it all depends from person to person..

But at the end of the day, your birthday is just one day when you physically came into existence, but there's a new you every single day. Celebrate every single day of your life , not just your birthday. You are blessed with a new day, new beginning ,new opportunities, new people , and new experiences everyday . Make the most out of it . Live it and love it . Love all of you, all around you and all within you. 

Love every part of life.
