Birthday

I am reluctant to throw a party on my birthday to avoid people from knowing.
I do it to avoid drawing attention, to avoid inconveniencing others, to avoid unreasonable expectation.
Inevitably, my closest friends, my loved ones, my family, my friends at work will surprise me and remember. For that I am hugely grateful.
But for those who let the day pass by silently purposefully or not, that is a wonderful gift I treasure.
