It's the last day of March and I'm entering April with a smile on my face. Surprisingly, I'm actually happy and looking forward to celebrating my 21st birthday. Even though my Kuya Rom is still in London on the 13th, the bottom line is that I'm still in the mood to celebrate. For the first time in three years, I can say that I'm excited to turn another year older.
Since I turned 18, I haven't really been happy when my birthday comes along. I don't know, I feel like there's always something missing...there's always something wrong. But for the first time in a very long time...I can smile. I'm just happy. I don't know...I can't quite put my finger why I am.
I just am.
It's nice to really feel this way...as if I have nothing to worry about. I know I have my own problems but after two decades, I have learned to not think about my problems everyday for the rest of my life. I have come to realize that for each day that I live, there is at least one thing I can be happy for, one thing I can be thankful for. That is a lesson learned from the past year.
Maybe...just maybe...it's because of the people around me. There aren't really people making my blood boil. I'm with people who love and care for me, people who care for me. Each one of them is a reason why I always look at the bright side.
Anyway, I have to go. Still have things to do...
