Birthday.
It’s that time again. I turned 35 yesterday. Madelen and Ossian woke me up with a cup of fresh tea, a pastry with a candle in it, and three birthday presents. A new pair of shoes from my in-laws (I needed those!), a wonderful cook book and a movie gift certificate. What a great way to start the morning. Later that day, Madelen took me to a café and I could pick anything I wanted. I love her.
Some people don’t bother with birtdays after a certain age and I can understand that. Who wants to be reminded that they’re getting older? Thirty. Five. That’s almost half your life! So, what do you do? Answer: don’t make a big deal out of it. Your birthday party doesn’t have to be A Party. Just family and a few friends eating cake and chatting, perhaps a dinner at a favourite restaurant. Just a little moment for those closest to you to tell you how much they appreciate you.
So, next time your number is up (ha ha), don’t fret, don’t panic. Just enjoy the Love.
See you all at my birthday party on Saturday.
