When I was in my teens, I had a big group of classmates celebrating for me. We went to ice skate and had macdonald back then and I carried back plastic bags n plastic bags of presents. When we grew older, a different group celebrated with me and it was lovely as well. As I passed the age of 21 and going to a quarter of century, i realised that only my family has never failed to celebrate this day with me every single year. Everybody seemed to fade and leave somehow. Initially a few years go, I was so upset, because no others have wanted to spare a little time on this special occasion and I waited by the phone for any message that would say to help me celebrate my birthday till the end of each year. Not to mention surprises but nope, not a single soul. I started to think was it because I wasn't good enough as a friend? Maybe I am thats why on this day no friends have actually helped me celebrate. As years passed, I started to accept what it is. At least I should be thankful for what I have, be grateful for the things and people who stay. So at this quarter of century, I am equally happy that my family had always compromise to me to go eat my favourite food and my boyfriend make the effort to plan for my birthday and spend the whole day with me. I thank those people who wish me as well.
知足常乐
Happy Birthday to me :)
