Those are some of the birthday greetings I got from my dear fellas. Well yes, today was my birthday. And I am officially 21.
Speaking of birthday, actually I am that kind of person who does not really like birthdays. Weird enough? The first reason was the aging LOL. I used to hate growing older so much. As John Mayer once sang "So scared of being old, I'm only good at being young" well I guess that described me perfectly. But as now I am more mature than I was before, I believe that growing is a part of life and like it or not, it is still going to happen. Now what's left is the choice, enjoy it or not. And I am now in progress of learning :)
The other reason(s) why I don't like birthday, hmm let that just be my secret because I personally think those reasons are so selfish and I am still learning to cast all those negative things from my mind LOL.
But those things does not make me any less grateful. I am grateful, more than thankful, for those people who cared about me, for those people who loved me for who I am, even though I am lacking so much of perfection, but there were still those who keep sticking around me.

I am describing my this birthday as a simpler one, as I didn't really do anything much on it. I used to go on birthdays with sooooo many presents from people around me but now I believed birthday presents were not really the main point. There was so much more.
I see my life as a very blessed one, with my Lord by my side, with the love of my parents and siblings, with those good fellas I have, with those whom I know dislike me very much, they all shaped me as what I am now. I don't know if I am a good or a bad person and I don't think that is the only way to categorize people but I am hoping that I will grow each day more likely my Heavenly Father and be a blessing for those around me.
Please pray for me that I will be a better person, way better than I am now, that I can cut off those negative thoughts that sometimes still haunt me. I believe my Lord has prepared me a really great future that I have never imagined before, way better than what I wanted and what I planned. And to achieve that, I need to be a better person :)
My birthday is going to end in about 30 minutes, so I guess I'll see you next year on my birthday post and let's see how I will progress in my personality hehe. Good night and thank you people, thank You Lord.
