Today is my birthday. It's barely 1 pm and I already got sang to, got flowers, bday cake, congratulations on social media, texts and phone calls.
I am very blessed to have so many loving people in my life.
Turns out even my son is coming over to celebrate me today.
I am just feeling very loved today and I wanted to blog about it so if I am ever in doubt that I matter, even if a little bit to some people, I will come back to this blog and remind myself that I am being too hard on myself as always.
52 years old. I dont feel it. I have lived my life the way I have wanted to and really time does fly when you're having fun. Where did all the years go? This is crazy, I was still in my 30's when we first bought the house and that wasnt so long ago.
I do feel like I am transitioning to a new era. I feel a lot more secure about myself. I feel like I am still growing of course, but just a bit more fearless. I have come to learn over the years that nothing is as bad as it seems and things can always be better. Even when things are great, you can keep striving to be even better.
I do miss my dad. He was already gone last birthday but it had been too recent so I was still going through grief so I didnt really feel it then, but I felt it now. He was always one of the first ones to call me. I had my moment where I teared up over it. But I moved on. I have plenty to enjoy and be thankful for.
To anyone reading, I hope you have as much as a lovely day as I am having right now. Sending virtual hugs.
Until next time.
