Although it's always fun getting presents, and having a day that's all about you, Birthdays are very sad to me. It means that I am one year closer to my death! & that scares me.
Not death itself, really. I'm more afraid that I will waste my remaining years away, and never do the things that I long to do. Like if I died tomorrow....I wouldn't have really lived. I waste away my time, And that is no way to celebrate life!
Because the life you are given, whether it be filled with painful things or amazing memories of childhood and such, is a gift. You are lucky to be living, when so many others have died, Way before their time!
With this birthday, I will open my eyes to the world, and live as much as possible. I dislike the saying "Live life to the fullest", but that is exactly what I will do from now on. I won't waste away this life, for I am lucky to still be alive!
**Thoughts for the day. =)**
