Birthday Revelry

Even though my birthday has officially come and gone for another year, I still think that I would like to do something to celebrate it.

I presently have no idea whatsoever what that 'something' should be.

At all. Even a little bit.

I didn't think that I really wanted to do much for my birthday this year, so I treated myself to something I haven't done in a really long time - I took the day off. I normally never have the opportunity to do that - my birthday usually coincided with an exam at school or a work day that I couldn't monetarily afford to opt out on.

So when the opportunity arose to take a week off work to unplug from the grid and have some much needed down time - I jumped on it.

It was heavenly. Took me the better part of the week to feel relaxed again, but it was worth every minute of it. I felt creative again and started working on a new piece of literary work as well as two new artworks. And yes, I am an overachiever by nature because I love to see what I'm capable of. Maybe it's an Aries thing. ;)

When my birthday actually arrived I was refreshed, relaxed and recentered again.

And as I've looked back on points in my life these past days, I've come to realize that for all the ups and downs, I have been quite fortunate in my life. After all, I'm still here.

And that should be celebrated.

So I'm looking for some inspiring ideas and am turning to you for help.

Any and all ideas are welcome.

Dazzle me.
