Today, May 14th, is my birthday. Being as old as I am, this isn't the first year I celebrate my birthday. Yet this year was different. This year people were "celebrating me" rather than celebrating my birthday. I know this is not an acknowledgement page, so I will make sure not to make it sound as such. Names anonymous. :) My best friend, who's so loving and caring in a way I've never known before. We had great time out, you and I and the rest. Thanks for the joy and smile on my special day. My office mates, the surprise party you made for me was wonderful! There I was, clinging to my pc and working nonstop like an ever active bee, when I found you all gathering around me, switching the lights off and approaching me with a candle-lit tasty chocolate cake, it was so sweet of all of you. My sisters, my brothers, everyone who wished me, gifted me, or shared the joy with me. My abroad friend, who called just to sing for me, "Happy Birthday to you". Thank you, it was lovely! It only makes the difference because for the first time in my life I felt it wasn't the day of my birth that was celebrated. It was "me" whom you all wanted to celebrate. I will add this sweet memory to the box of beautiful memories I have, and I'm certain that being blessed with such loving people, more memories are yet to be added to my "memories box".

On my birthday, I just felt like saying this. And I'm free to say whatever I want in my blogging space, and especially on my birthday! :)
