Today marks my turning of two decades, to think about it two decades isn't that long in year's length nor it is short. What an awfully awkward decade it is, it also depends on how long one life spans that determines the mid length of one's age. Birthdays have always been about celebrations and just well if I may, a down right selfish day that breeds egocentric narcissistic behavior. The day where I rule and everything must go my way simply because it's my birthday. I wonder how many souls have ever thought about the immense amount of pain that a mother bears on this faithful day. The day that you are born signifies another phase of a person's life namely your parents, parenthood, motherhood, fatherhood.Think about it, it is one significant event, one of life's most crucial moments, the anticipation, it's life altering, your existence in this world is not just mere existence its so much more to that.The day where unconditional love can be witnessed at it crudest moment. It's more than what we have always known birthdays are to be, look past the fancy presents and materialistic things and worldly goods, you'll see more to it, I promise, you'll see a whole new life tucked underneath this idea of what we have. It is also a day that brings distant friends together. As we grow, we grow apart from each other and for many years to come this day will be the day that brings us together, conversations may last merely a few lines picking up from the birthday wish and might not even get past how are you but it takes a person back to a time, back to a moment of what we've been and things that reminds us and that makes us who are today. Just dew drops moments of life shared with another being. I truly appreciate everyone who has been and still is in my life, I believe that we are all connected by this intricate web and that our life overlap each others for a reason, always for a good reason. Namaste
