My birthday is a celebration of me becoming something. It's the moment when a circle in my life closes. This is true for you, too!
If you think of your birthday as a time to celebrate, then even if you hate how things are going in your life or there isn't any money or there’s no one to spend it with, there's something good about the fact that you're still here.
Birthday week is a great time to get perspective! It's OK if you think I'm crazy for thinking this way (LOL), but listen anyway... I almost guarantee you'll be encouraged!
