The reason behind why we celebrate birthdays

Each and everyone of us are born at different dates and time, but also some have the same birth date. Having a birthday party is a way of celebrating how many years a person has existed and survived in this cruel world. A celebration in which God has given a new life and hope to be looked upon.

I have already existed for 16 years, and incoming 17. I have been through many sorts of stuffs. I had encountered a lot during my younger days, and will continue to experience more in the future. I have lived for 5,986 days of my life. Despite of all the challenges, I have received more than 5,986 blessings from our Almighty Father. And that is the reason behind why we celebrate birthdays. It is because of the blessing that is given to us every single day, we wake up because God gave us the chance to.

So be proud of your birth date and thank God for giving you the chance to see and exist in this world.
