Birthdays

[Wayne Goodwin]

Do you Celebrate Your Birthday or would ya rather just forget it ?

[uno,dos,3]

Neither.

Seriously.

I love birthdays.  Mine, yours, anyones. It's that persons special day.

I acknowledge it, I don't celebrate it or forget it. I once lost track during a busy period of my life so I was 47 in my mind for two years, the first year I somehow jumped ahead.

I don't necessarily celebrate....like, with a party or something. I do acknowledge it, and I appreciate when my family and friends call or send a card. My son and his wife usually take me out to dinner for Mother's Day and birthdays. If I'm up home....which is about half the time....we will have a BBQ or my daughter or granddaughter will take me to dinner and a movie. I don't ignore birthdays. I appreciate every single year I've been blessed enough to be able to see. I have a slight feeling lately that the years seem to be going faster, and my time is growing shorter.....but it just makes me appreciate every single day I am here. I still have more to do.

I personally pay no attention but am reminded by relatives.  Being an iconoclast I see birthdays as one of the Idols of the Tribe right in there with graduations, anniversaries, celibrating the day you got your first television, whatever.  I have some relatives that celebrate everything with a party: 1st birthday, 2nd birthday, etc. graduation from 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, on up 'til they make it out of High School (if they do). I find it ironic and joke about it because they are all dumber than a box of rocks.

 I have a big family, multi-generations, so we celebrate with others that have birthdays  the same month..it's  mostly an excuse to get together once a month.

I don't care to celebrate any shape or form . Rarely hear anything from the kid's . My cousin makes damn sure i know it . He's almost 6 months ahead of me . Be 63 in June . Where have all those years gone . Don't feel my age but my body does . In my mind i feel like i did ate 30 . Except the sex part . Seems my weeks are flying by so fast now . Gotta grin and take it .
