Birthday
My birthday is 17 December – another successful trip around the sun aboard spaceship Earth. Birthdays are a paradox: both trivial and significant, arbitrary and meaningful. They are a reminder to each of us that our birth added a unique drop to the ocean of humanity, which has rippled through time and space ever since. The older I get, the less birthdays are about gifts and celebrations. Rather they are a moment to reflect and be grateful for love and friends, health and opportunities. And to contemplate what new surprises and fresh experiences life has in store for the year ahead.
