off on my sunny trip!
One of my friends reminded me that birthdays are a journey, not a number: A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun. Enjoy the trip.
I liked the metaphor that is in fact completely true. We are travelling around the sun, and our year's journey is unique to when we were placed on earth. We are each a star, unique but one of many, many more--with some of us clustered quite closely on that orbit!
