It’s funny how an email (and a general, auto-forwarded email at that) would actually speak of my current situation and seem so personal. Last Saturday, I received the following email from ‘The Universe’.

Subject: Your TUT Adventurers Birthday Wish!!!

Happy Birrrrthday to Youuuu,
Happy Birrrrthday to Youuuu,
Happy Birrrrthday Dear Joanne,
Happy Birrrrthday to Youuuu!
A few years back, not so long ago, heaven and earth erupted into a major celebration with the news of your impending adventure into this
very time and space. You see, someone like [you] doesn’t come along all that often. In fact, there’s never been a single one like you, nor is there ever ANY possibility that another will come
again. You’re an Angel among us. Someone, whose eyes see what no others will EVER see, whose ears hear what no others will EVER hear, and whose perspective and feelings will NEVER, ever be duplicated. Without YOU, the Universe, and ALL THAT IS, would be sadly less than it is.
Quite simply:
You’re the kind of person, Joanne,
Who’s hard to forget,
A one-in-a-million
To the people you’ve met.
Your friends are as varied
As the places you go,
And they all want to tell you
In case you don’t know:
That you make a big difference
In the lives that you touch,
By taking so little
And giving so much!
Joanne, you are so AWESOME! For your birthday, friends and angels from every corner of the Universe, including buddies
you didn’t know you had, will be with you to wish you the HAPPIEST of days and an exciting new year in time and space. You won’t be alone!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Joanne!

PS – Joanne, this is going to be YOUR year!!

It was my 30th birthday last Saturday, although I wasn’t able to fully celebrate it (yet), because of several events that I had to attend to. Nevertheless, I got in touch with old friends and spent time with new ones. I was surrounded by a lot of people, and the greetings poured in, even if the events I attended were not actually for me.
I’m not even sure if I was able to respond to those greetings properly – I had a totally different mindset. Honestly, the weekend was a bit stressful for me because of the tight schedule. If it wasn’t for the greetings, I would have forgotten that it’s my birthday. *lol*
I am truly thankful for the greetings and grateful to all those who remembered my birthday (cheers to Facebook :p). I will always cherish these memories in my heart.
So as I continue to live within this time and space continuum, I look forward to the adventures that await me. So help me God. :j
