31st January was the day I turned 34. I thanked my friends and colleagues for their well wishes and cards, I really do. However, it got me thinking if i really deserved those things. Why I asked that? Let's see... I think it's because my birth into this world is not of my choice or doing. This day should belong to my mother. The lady who carried me for 9 months and with God's permission, gave birth to me, painfully, 34 years ago.
I think birthday celebrations are overated. I have never seen the whole point of celebrating a person's birthday when all effort was from a mother. I wonder how many shares my sentiments...
On that day, I spent a lot of time thinking and pondering.. wondering what have I done to get to where I am and what I need to do to go where I want to be. It got me thinking, if I have contributed enough to make a difference to those who might need it.
