celebrate with my family and friends because they

celebrate with my family and friends because they make me feel special and happy on that day When I was young and barely 3 feet off the ground, birthdays were fun, special events I would look forward to. I'd sit by the phone — the landline — and take doting calls from family and bask in all the affection. As I grew older, I started to dread my birthday because it meant I would have to talk to people with whom I wouldn't have spoken all year. I would have to confront the fact that I'm closer to death than I was last year. I would have to answer questions about what I was doing in life and what I had to show for having lived another year. But now I'm thinking of walking that middle path between childlike excitement and adult-like dread. I'm thinking of reminding my close friends that it's my birthday in a few days and that I will expect their calls and messages. I'm thinking of asking them to tell me one thing they really like about me — something superficial (like my face or the sound of my laughter), something deep or an inside joke. I'm thinking about celebrating the fact that I exist. What about you? #aboutme #onmynextbirthday #YourQuoteAndMine Collaborating with YourQuote Baba
