It’s just another day like every other day. You can think that you are a gift to the universe, there is nothing wrong with that. Your time clock is ticking down. And that’s OK too. What matters is what you will do and say on that day. You do not have to bring peace and comfort to anyone, only cause no harm to anyone. That alone makes it a happy birthday for you.
Not causing anyone harm is something to celebrate. This is an act that can give you peace of mind.
As you grow older this can be a depressing day. A day that you don’t want to think about. A remark that irritates you when someone tells you happy birthday. No one can tell you how to feel, and if that is how you feel about this day, that is how you feel.
Just another day that comes and goes. A candle stuck into a cake, or no cake and no candle. It makes no difference because the day do not care. The day will move on with or without you.
You feel that you are a gift to the universe. Maybe. But the universe is not aware of you as a person, you are aware of the universe. To the universe you are one of the elements of its makeup. You are a component part of it and no more. This awareness of the cosmos should not trouble you. Because you are a gift to the universe woven in that frame.
Like every other day. Your birthday is like any other day. It can be a joyful day if you choose it to be. It can be a depressing day if you are viewing it as a countdown. However, your view is about your birthday. However, you feel about that day. The day will come and the day will go. Time, as it is defined ticks on.
Happy birthday. Now take a seat. A candle melting its wax onto a cake. A toast given, not sliced bread browned on both sides, but a raise of glasses in honor of a person, that may or may not be sincere. A happy feeling that only lasts for a moment. That is all OK. This is your day like any other day, so enjoy it. Happy Birthday.
