Today I turned 21. One thing that gets me high on my birthday is when I start to hang in to whoever among my family, friends, special people, and acquaintances remembers to post a birthday greeting on my facebook wall,tsk! A preoccupation this is.
Suffice it to say, that is all I could ever be thankful of; letting in God’s best in love and mercy through other people.
The more I get to receive their greetings, the more I get reminded of how my life has been glutted with inspiration by other people and how I ripened each time because of them.
Let alone myself understand that maturity (in mind) and wisdom (in heart) doesn’t necessarily come as we age, it comes as to how we have endured and bandy with the daily challenges of life. That’s why I’m determined to learn as my age upturns.
Really, my birthday is all about being grateful for everything that came about in the past 21 years. And I also hope to not just receive more blessings but be more of a blessing to others.

Surprises never ended, someone so sincere touched me bolts and nuts when he made a video about how important the day of my birth was and how I, from the very start was greatly filled with love and worth.
I was born at the 1st day of August twenty one years ago. I influenced people who likewise influenced me largely into becoming what I am meant to be.
Praying myself a HAPPY NEW YEAR! I praise my heavenly father!
"I am one of the best and the greatest things"
Thank you all, for a great story ever told.
