Not-So-Happy Birthday to Me


Still celebrating birthdays? Whether young or old, birthdays are special--a celebration of the day you were brought into the world. Still, as we get older do we celebrate less the gift of life?

This is something I'm currently struggling with. Today at 11:52 I turn 25 years old. Wow-big whoop, huh? Do you remember what your 25th was like? What emotions do you recall coming to surface?

“It's a little sad.”

25, single, with no house to call my own. Pretty decent financially without major rent, etc. from living in the city, but how can I get my life to move fast-forward without losing precious time?

It's tough, and I have to think to myself, "Can I be happy with nothing to my name except a family?" And then I have to ask, "Would it be enough for 'her'?"

Awwwww!!I'm sorry u had a "sad" birthday...i will be 25 in march and i have been sort of going through the same thing...im not really friends with any of my old friends and my life definately has not gone in the direction i was hoping for...but if you meet a great girl that really loves you for who you are, then who you are will be enough for her...and if she doesnt accept u for who you are and what u have or dont have then she doesnt deserve you to begin with. hang in there...if u need to talk i am here *big hugs* -Courtney P.
