Last year I wrote this post about my birthday and I thought I would pop in today with a similar sentiment.
A book I read recently described birthdays as “not a day to celebrate progress…[but] a day to celebrate existence.”
And I thought, yes! That is exactly how I feel.
Because what a treat to get the opportunity to start another year of life! To learn another year, to discover, to exist. What a blessing! What a wonder!
How cool that I woke up 365 more times in a row and learned brand new variations of 24 hours. That I have grown and changed in ways seen and unseen. That I made it through every hard day and smiled through brand new good ones. And now I get the chance to do it again. What a privilege!
So here’s to 34!
