Had a birthday party for the first time in a LOOONG time...and it was very fun.
What struck me most--I have some incredible people in my life!
Sometimes we are so damned busy with life and its struggles and just...well, Daily-ness. Never time to actually spend with people we have in our lives and who we know, somehow or other, we really like to spend time with!
I also have incredibly eclectic tastes--in music, movies, hobbies....and friends. I gathered some of them up in a small room for 3 hours...and we had food, laughter (sometimes at each others expense...) and I realized how people gather together despite their differences, for someone they care about. And this time that person they cared about was me!
Unfortunately, 3 hours is not enough time with everyone, and I do regret that I did not get to hang out with everyone as much as I wanted...but it did make me resolve that this next year--this 50th (!) year...I am going to try to make more time to enjoy the friends and family around me and show them how much I appreciate them!
