all my love

so.. another year passed me by .. and i'm officially 27 plus 1 :p (kamo nay matimatik, in denial pa ko :D )

and i hear voices n my head ... *27 + 1.. wait, 28? OMG..and no boyfriend?
you should be thinking about getting married soon..err.. sooner, y'know?
and no savings still?*.... okay, i didn't hear all that. really, ignore it.

sheesh, i'm a year older. okay, so i'm 28! it sounds like i'm almost becoming ancient and i am not even halfway with my things-to-do-before-thirty list. or rather, i haven't even started making my list! no one's really getting younger (yeah, yeah!). and it feels good to know that i'm in sync with everyone about that. ( yes! :p )

i was just reading about my birthday post last year to compare how much has changed in over a year. well, i'm proud to say that i'm not as emotional as i was before. i was totally immature back then. or maybe i'm seeing life as something that's getting better right now. maybe, i've been seeing more "light" and hope.. which is really a good thing. or maybe, inspired lang ko? hehe (ug wlay mang-intriga :p).

seriously, it's about time to see birthdays as something more than counting your blessings. it's not that i have nothing to be grateful about anymore.. we still need to be thankful about everything we get to have or experience in life, big and small..well, the blessings are just overflowing. and it's a waste if you don't give the chance to share them y'know.

i think birthdays should be centered more about how much blessings you could share for other people. make it a day for you to become a better friend to someone, be a more thoughtful child, or a more caring sister/brother. make it a day to be extra generous to those who are in need. then, your blessings won't end on you.. it would then continue to flow on to others, which i think is the essence of all the gifts you've received in life. once you do this, you'd get to experience a way way better birthday.

so to everyone, all my love :) mwah!
