My
birthday post has never been so late. I have been struggling to write this post
for so long. And now I am just going to complete this anyhow so that I can
remove it from my to-do list.
Till last
year, growing up was a lot of fun. Becoming independent etc. But this time, I
was like a Peter Pan. Suddenly too many things are changing and I want to pause
everything. Rewind and fast forward. Take a good look at Time.
I hate
the responsibilities that come with growing up. All I can think of right now is
turning 30 and then 32 and then 35 (cant look beyond that) and I shudder to
imagine what lies ahead. Good things (too) I am sure, but it is daunting. And I
am restless.
This year
my birthday involved reading Calvin and Hobbes (he got me the ENTIRE
collection) and coloring pictures (colouring book for adults, it has illustrated
postcards of streets of Paris – it is lovely!). I brought in my birthday right
after some personal and professional ‘turmoil’ and was not my usual chirpy
self. But I behaved like a 5 year old that entire week (got my birthday gifts
early- Amazon yayy!).
My
birthday was the sunshine I needed to feel blessed.
So a
happy happy birthday was had.
I miss
this blog and I am going to be back soon.
Love,
S

ReplyDeleteI'm on the other side of 30 now, so am allowed to forget things :P
This October you will complete 35 :). I just got back to my blog and was checking if any of my old commenters in the past were still active, surprisingly none.
