random thoughts on my birthday. . .

at Tuesday, April 19, 2011

it's the 19th of april....my day. special of course! munchkins have been so earnest in greeting and wishing me. in fact they've been greeting me since last week. they made cards and bought me fancy jewelry from their own pocket. showered me with lots of hugs and kisses. i'm amazed by their thoughtfulness and resourcefulness. thanks my dearest for showing so much enthusiasm to make me happy and complete.

i have just turned 46 seven minutes ago with someone so close to my heart. happy birthday to me!! i was serenaded by the song of bruno mars - one song says "you're so amazing, just the way you are" and the other says "it is a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do.hey baby, i think i wanna marry you." yes, yes, yes!! i do want to marry you!! ha ha ha!!  i smiled sooooo much, laughed and more tenderness was embedded in my heart. truly the best one can give is a gift of self and time. when i blow my birthday candles today, i'd wish to spend the rest of my birthdays with him. thank you so much! i love you too... the most!

i love you mom!! great to hear your voice! apologies for waking you up from your restful sleep. i know though that it's okey for me to wake you up. :-)). thanks for the greetings.

my heartfelt gratitude to friends from here and far, who took the effort to call and email me their wishes. priceless gift of thoughtfulness.

to my colleagues at victoria university who awesomely surprised me with baked goodies from holt renfrew and a wish card. they really got me this time!

on my birthday i will continue to be me in thoughts and deeds or simply to live the truth in my heart and soul, to listen to my own wisdom and do who I am in every sense. this is a way to soften expectations to myself. although it is overwhelming to discern the authentic self the rewards are significant and are worth the effort. i love "today" and today is a re-discovery of my strengths and the source of my stature and applying my entire make up toward my goals. of course, this re-affirmation of self would include the audacity to admit my limitations and clinch on to my vulnerability.

yes... it's truly a happy birthday to me. and most of all, i thank GOD for the gift of life and all the facets that fills every corner of my being which makes me beautiful and sturdy.
