First of all happy 22nd birthday to myself :)
How do you feel when no one remembers your birthday? Sad, of course
Almost some people on the surface of this earth really want their birthday to be celebrated with a little sweet surprise, even to the point that someone asked for a surprise to his friend, ", later if it's my birthday you will give me a surprise," or, "Honey, later if I do. birthday give me bouquete flowers yaa, "or there are some people who sincerely surprise their loved ones on special days.
I always look forward to one thing when March comes, not a bouquet of flowers, not a special gift, just a magical sentence. The magical words that I've been waiting for were spoken from my friends and family, "Happy birthday". How a sentence can change everything in my life, and how a sentence can put a smile on my lips.
It is sticky in our memory that birthdays are days where many prayers from family or friends flood us, even though our birthdays are not difficult things to know anymore. Some of those who congratulate them do not mean they know, then remember our birthdays, but often they are reminded by current social media, such as Facebook, and so on. It's a little ridiculous, but what's important is their sincerity when praying for us.
Every time my friends have birthdays, I always say "HBD" to them accompanied by positive hopes.
However, when it was my birthday none of my friends said "happy birthday", or offered prayers for me. I initially felt "how come people, no one remembers my birthday".
However, it gradually dawned on me. The birthday wishes are not so important. The most important thing is that at my birthday I pray to God that I will give him health and as I get older I will be given the strength and courage to face life, both joy and sorrow, so that happiness is always filled with loved ones.
