A Walk Through My Birthday

Wisdom will multiply your days and add years to your life.

This year I celebrated my birthday differently. I usually get on my knees at 00.00 to whisper a simple prayer of thankfulness for years that passed and hope for years to come.

This year, or last night, it was different. I was standing in line to enter a club, called Budha Bar, when the clock hit 00.00 CET.

Was I becoming less religious?

I hope the change of routine does not define my faith to God nor it makes me less religious. To all fairness, I did whisper a short prayer, with a very happy smile of “Thank you God” when I was standing there. It was as if He was standing next to me, along with my friends who hugged and kissed me and wished me happy birthday. Thank you for making me feel loved on this birthday.

A good night sleep, because don’t you know he enjoys giving rest to those he loves?

Longevity noodle for lunch, for long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.

A cup of sweet orange flavored tea, so that my words are like honeycombs, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

Thank you Lord for today. It is just another day to mark how many years you have been with me. And through these years you have shown me that you are faithful and true. Teach me to number my days, that I may gain a heart of wisdom. Amen.
