Turning 27!!

Few hours and one more year will be added to aging me.. so many resolutions every birthday and none of them followed.. this year too i have many resolutions like Fighting less with my wife to get timely food, being regular to gym so that girls don't get to know my age, work harder, spend less etc etc... but the point is how many will i follow.. :) lets see...

Also this birthday is a bit different from the previous few, for this is my first birthday with her being my wife and I am changing my job too.. Whatever but birthday seems to be a very normal day to me. When I was a kid I used to be excited for my birthday before a week itself. Then at the end of it I used to feel very bad and sad as nothing special and different would have happened on this day. The Sun always rose from the east, the day always had 24 hrs in it, and it was always very hot on this day. Just that a small party was organized in which all the kids would come and hog on the yummy chole bhature, paav bhaji etc cooked by my mother and in which they used to bring gifts and ofcourse i was always happy to get them. But for what i used to wait was something different.. something so different and special that wont happen on any other day and that cant be done on any other day.. That would mark my birthday as 'MY' birthday.

Now I realize.. for a birthday to be special is not a natural thing but it has to be made. It has to be made special and remarkable by the achievements and the deeds. A person becomes special first followed by his birthday and when a day is remembered by a person's birthday and when people but not that person celebrates his birthday then the day becomes Special.

I have never done any such thing that people will remember the day as 'MY' birthday and I haven't done any great for my birthday to be celebrated by others. So I consider it as another normal day in my life although I celebrate it sometimes and accept gifts because firstly it brings me a little happiness and secondly i don't want to be seemed rude. I always expect it to end as a normal day so that at least people wont notice that I have grown older!!
