As you all know (or should know), i am a proud March baby & to be exact, 3.15.87 was the special day I came into existence. As of today, I am officially in the Jordan club now! :) THE BIG 2-3! oh my, you say? Yess hunnie. 23!! i could scream. i just cant believe it. Its so crazy to even think of myself being this age because it almost seems like just yesterday i was 13!
Anyhow, today was a good day. I did not celebrate my DOB like most people do because I personally DO NOT agree with or practice the customs that are associated with birthdays at all. The origins behind it all do not sit right with me and if you took time to learn and analyze them, you'd agree they def dont sit right with God either. To be perfectly honest, we all are imperfect human beings who sin every single day- really that is nothing to extravagantly praise. If anything, our being here is a gift from Jehovah, so all the praise & glorification goes to Him, not us. And when all is said & done, people should be genuinely appreciated EVERY day of their life & not just ONE.
Therefore, I simply just took a day to rest and have some time for peace of mind and just thought of all I am grateful for. Overall, I am thankful for everyday but i am especially appreciative to have lived this far. I know I am not thaaat old but we are all imperfect and everyday is not promised to us. My 22nd year was a very crazy, tumultous, emotional, pivotal one for me & i honestly didn't think (or know how) i was going to make it to see another one but i did! I'm still standing! As i look back, i want to cry about all i went through but instead I smile at the tremendous growth it provided for me & now i am now adamately looking forward to EVERYTHING this 23rd year holds for me. So, with that said...
