True Meaning of Birthday, is it lost?
Happy Birthday to Mummy-Me.. hahahah well, I was given this cake and I’d almost forgotten I have a birthday. I don’t like people to fuss over me but I do love surprises. I had already specifically reminded loved ones that I am one who do not enjoy seeing numbers so I got a cake, without any number and a sole candle was lighted for celebration. I think that is sweet of my family. I was touched that they know me so well. I loved the cake, a yummy Black Forest filling cake. I was bathed in love and I felt really happy.
I used to enjoy celebrating Birthdays but because of all that ‘commercialized packaging’ the true meaning of a Birthday is somewhat lost and distorted. It should be a day to feel blessed at how many years we have enjoyed our life, how blessed we are to have people around us and want to have our loved ones with us as we hit more milestones with every birth day/month. We should not be expecting all that gifts as much as celebrating Life in every passing year. Did you ever thought of our life this way?




Happy belated birthday! I enjoy surprises too but like you said, birthday is just a celebration. Great time to spend with loved ones and no fussy about it. I like a simple birthday treat like dinner with family. No cake though, cos sure we can’t finish one.
