This Friday it’s my birthday…and I’m turning 43yrs old.

As opposed to many others, I don’t make a fuss about my birthday. It’s just another day, that also happens to be the day I was born. I am happy to receive birthday wishes, and gifts but if I don`t it`s just as fine.

I do not want tons of gifts, birthday parties or multiple celebrations, especially now that I am getting older. Why should I celebrate getting older?

Some of you might say, that I am boring person but I assure you it`s not the case. I just do not find the necessity to celebrate my birthday, with parties or dinners. It is just my point of view. I do not judge anyone who likes to have parties and multiple birthday celebrations.

Throughout these 43yrs, I have learnt to appreciate the small things in life. Nowadays I prefer to stay at home with my husband and kids – hoping the latter will make it easy on me.

I gratedul for my blessings each and everyday. I consider myself blessed to be healthy, have a family that loves me and have a place that I can call home.

Life has not been easy for me, but I have learnt to keep going no matter what. So for my birthday, I leave you with a quote that helped me when I felt there was no light at the end of tunnel.

Love
