Ola! I turned 31 today.
Spent my day mostly in the village where phone signal is non-existent
that I only received abundant of wonderful wishes as soon I reached the
city this afternoon. Those wishes and prayers made me feel so special
and I am blessed to have you guys in my life. Thank you :)
Last night I got an early wish from my nephew who congratulated me for having a birthday the next day. I smiled ear to ear reading the text because it is cute yet so kind.
Earlier today I also received a birthday wish from Mas Jujur Prananto,
whom I only met once but ended up communicate pretty constantly until
now. It amazes me still, how an instant encounter would lead to years of
friendship.
If I may say, being 31 is a blessing, that the
Almighty is kind enough to allow me to breathe the air. Yet it is also
an alert, to take a better care of myself, to be more focus, and to live
more responsibly, as my lifespan is now has shortened a year.
There is no candle blowing ritual, nor festive celebration, nor birthday
dinner tonight, just a simple frozen yoghurt and a cup of latte treat
for myself.
Just me and myself. Thinking and thanking.
Happy birthday to me.
