It's my birthday today. Third birthday celebrated as a wife. Why do we put high importance on some dates in our life? For the memory? For the need of a certain benchmark? For the celebration? A friend once confided she feels more alone on her birthday as she has been celebrating it alone all these years. This year I hope she'll feel special on her birthday with a new family.
As for my birthday.... memories are short. After a few weeks, months, the feelings during the event will not really matter. In fact, it will probably be forgotten. But just for the record, I'd like to remember what I did on my birthdays. Two years ago, I was busy moving house and a day after my birthday, hubby and I went for a holiday. Last year, we went for our pool diving lesson, dinner and cake. This year, we celebrated my birthday yesterday. Hubby has a full day session with a client today and it did feel lonely without him around.
I'll forget about this eventually. I have to refer to my planner to recall what we did last year and two years ago :) So today will go into the fold of memories too but I need to remember that we spent a nice day yesterday. Thank you abang. We are going for a holiday next week too. So I'll appreciate all the time we can spend together.
Sunflower gives the connotation of cheerfulness, bright, jolly, merry... you get the idea! However, if any content in this blog didn't fit the cheerfulness implied by its name, look at it this way... I'm putting down all the wretchedness, gloom, melancholy feeling in here so I can continue living up to the expectation of making the association to the sunflower.
