Does Your Birthday Really Matter?
I just celebrated my birthday. Does this seem like a silly thing to tell you? Everyone has one and mine isn’t particularly special except it is on St. Patrick’s Day. I get to drink green (or any color) beer with unabashed pleasure on St. Patrick’s Day but that isn’t the reason I’m telling you this. Birthdays are important because we are each important. I know this is so and I think you should know so too. Unless you are the president, there just aren’t that many days that celebrate, not what we’ve done, but who we are. We are supposed to celebrate ourselves just because we were born. Hmmm.
