My Birthday

 It was my birthday yesterday. The night before, I'm kinda emotional, it's probably just that. But yesterday, when it's already my birthday, I felt good, light, it's like it's just an ordinary day but it's special somehow. I always have this feeling that I am special, I am loved by the people around me. 

I can't remember when I stopped giving flowers and words of affirmations to people in my FB list, I love giving words, that I guess is my love language, I think, oh well it's something I want for me too. I want friends even people who barely know me to utter words of affirmations or prayers or anything that they've experienced, seen in me. I love hearing words that you would most likely give when someone is already dead, like in eulogy. I want to hear them now, enjoy them now that I am still alive. But since I stopped doing that to people I know, they don't do that to me as well =( So, craving for those words, let me pick out some of the messages I got for my birthdays even from before. I just want to fill my heart with love and kindness. Here they are:
