Last few minutes of my bday. My 28th bday. A point in life where the inevitable 30's look me straight in the eye and the past 28 years seem like a memory - beautiful memory of what feels like just yesterday.
By this phase in life, many of the people I know have figured out their lives, many have taken multiple steps to achieve their goals, many have achieved success beyond expectations, many have wonderful spouses and a few blessed ones have beautiful angels making them re-think their life! The others have accepted life for what it seems to be and made necessary adjustments to avoid excruciating conflicts.
Where does this leave me? Where do I put myself? What have I done that I can look back and feel mighty proud off?
Sitting in a room, I might as well call my own; in a trip that almost never happened; with a family so full of love (and food); answering calls from loved ones, singing the same old song; cheese cake, balloons, SNOW BALLS and a severely modified game of cricket!!! My life shaped pretty well after all!
While people often think about possessions they couldn't quite possess, I look at my life and wonder, I must be really special to lead such a rich life! Rain of love, firm hand over my head, a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold, footsteps beside mine, crazy laughter ringing my ears, tender fingers to wipe my tears. That's my life in a nutshell - at least 28 years of it! Pretty solid huh?
My priced possessions are my relations - wonderful parents I could die for, awesomely hot boyfriend I could kill for, supremely crazy soul mate who would do the killing for me! (Ya babe, you know it!) and my (slightly) overbearing bunch of nutheads I call friends! All you guys have been such an important part of my life, at most times my life itself! I am humbled to be a part of your lives and grateful to have you in mine. Here's hoping to many more fun filled, AGE DEFYING, cheese cake and balloon filled bdays!
