My Birthday

in #aprilbaby7 years ago

Hello,

It's my birthday today , a little bit ha ha and I don't feel it. Like in my head I know and acknowledge this as a fact but it's not like it used to be. I wonder if others are feeling the same about their birthdays.

It didn't used to be like this. It used to be a big deal, I would gather friends and celebrate and etc, but now I don't want all that attention anymore. I don't want the gifts either. Sure it's nice to receive presents and attention, but if I don't , then I am still ok with that.

I am trying to feel something more in regards to my birthday , and again , I acknowledge that it's my birthday and I love this day, I just don't feel "it" . Maybe because it fell on a Monday. I was celebrated over the week end by my boyfriend and my roommate and I am grateful for the attention. In my heart, I am keeping this day close to me. I am celebrating inside - but more on the symbolism of this day and not the fact that I am a year older.

So, this is my jiber jabber about my birthday and I am going to have a slice of coconut cake that I bought for my self. Plus, it's zero calories day today. So yay...I can have my cake and eat it too.

Namaste,

Diana

Happy Birthday Diana!! It wa any birthday yesterday and I completely relate... I use the day as a reflection now like a new year with an ending and beginning.

But I completely relate I haven’t really celebrated my birthday with a gathering in over 5years... but I am in Bali and did get a massage and ice cream to celebrate myself ... hope you’re able to enjoy your day too!!

Namaste beautiful one ✨
