The most boring birthday in history
I didn’t want to do anything special. I specifically asked not to do anything special. And so I didn’t do anything special.
It was quite nice.
I never really went all out on birthdays. In fact, because they were too many people whose birthdays I would’ve wanted to remember, at some point I just stopped paying attention to everyone’s birthdays, mine included. It just felt easier.
recently I’ve started to value my birthday for the first time. It’s not that I want to celebration. It’s more like I want my own time to reflect and to pull myself back into the moment, to take the occasion to reset and re-orientate.
There’s so many things to busy my mind with every day, some of them welcome and some not so much. I feel like the best way to celebrate the stars aligning the same as the day I was born, is to get back into the best state I can get into.
I’ve decided from here on out to spend all of my birthdays either alone, or with music and nature. I have no problem with meeting people, but I don’t want to do much talking. As long as I could stay in the meditative state, I’m good.
Maybe I’ll have a performance next birthday, or maybe I’ll climb a mountain with a friend. If not, I hope I’m at home or at the beach by myself or with my partner.
The past few years have been uneventful, although I feel that they’re building towards something. I can’t be sure exactly what yet but I know it’s exciting.
I plan to be more active this year. More travel. More music. More writing. More sharing. More projects. More work. More play. More good health. More excitement. More money.
I think I’m ready for it!

Thats right about birthdays, its ought to be moment to reminisce and reflect, pounder on a lot of stuffs the past, present and the future. Whats the next phase of life going to hold, being optimistic helps us get our bearings and stay the course...
So I’m not just an old man now?
😄....that's when reality dawn on you.....
Just the realization to be more responsible for life and it outcomes, is how i term majurity 😎👌
So what if, like me, you're actually born 7 weeks early? Should I perhaps celebrate my birthday 7 weeks later? ;^)
I wish you an amazing year, including a life changing bull market ✨
You were just on time buddy. The doctors and your lungs couldn’t catch up to you

Could totally understand to just have some 'me-time' on your birthday! I really enjoy to have such days on which I can choose what to do and doing nothing is totally fine as well! Good luck on your 'more... - mission' and remember less is more! ;)
Happy birthiversary :D
Meditative definitely sounds much more useful than blind drunk but I guess that's what happens when we get old and boring ;D
