Of All Things

Of all the things we might celebrate each year, whether new year, religious and secular holidays (depending on the country one lives in, etc.), there is one I consider extremely special, and worth of celebrating: one’s birthday.

Birthdays do not only mark a milestone in one’s life, they are the true new year, the most important new year for each one of us. A new year begins right after your birthday. The one everybody celebrates at year’s end is alright, but the new year you start at the sunset of your birthday is the one that truly counts.

So, happy new year to me! 🤭
