Today Is My Birthday!
Today is my 36th birthday! I felt the 36ness come upon me in the night and told 35-year-old Trula good-bye. She went on her merry way, wishing me well. I love birthdays so much, they are such a celebration of life and a remembrance of birth and living another year!
A twitter pal had this posted on his site and showed me today, I think it's such an awesome poem:
Happy Birthday to You!
"If you'd never been born, well what would you be?
You might be a fish! Or a toad in a tree!
You might be a door knob! Or three baked potatoes!
You might be a bag full of hard green tomatoes!
Or worse than all that... why, you might be a
WASN'T!
A Wasn't has no fun at all. No, he doesn't.
A Wasn't just isn't. He just isn't present.
But you... you ARE YOU! And now, isn't that pleasant!"
-- Dr. Seuss, from Happy Birthday To You!
