I arrive at twenty three years old well on my way to becoming the woman I hope one day to be. In the past year I have endured incredibly difficult challenges; celebrated beautiful moments of success, happiness, and love; and strengthened the ability to nurture and cherish and be gentle with my soul. I arrive here confident, proud of who I am and the struggles I have overcome.
I look ahead to the future, and hope that, as I hope for all of you this very moment, it may bring clarity, passion, inspiration, creativity, laughter, trust, adventure, and compassion.
Happy birthday to me!
Hooray! Thanks for the birthday wish, and I send you equal wishes! Have a wonderful birthday! <3
ReplyDeleteWaaaaait. I knew that Natalie and I have the same birthday, but I didn't know yours was today, too! Wow! Happy Birthday to the three of us! I'm 27 today!
ReplyDeleteI just realized it was after midnight, so I guess yours is April 6. Oh well, it's still incredible that ours are so close together!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Sweetheart, may all your dreams come true.
