And after reading this text, I am very frustrated. Because my birthday is July 26, this is usually summer vacation in Japan, I had never been experienced to be celebrated by people without family. I have never been given some kind of presents by friends in my birthday. And my families, especially my father, doesn`t have culture to celebrate. I think this cause a little big effect for me. I cannot understand the meaning or feeling to celebrate, to give any presents for others. However, in these days, I already notice that the groups which has many such celebrate events are usually keeping good atmosphere. In such group, people have more respectfulness and appreciating each ones. I think this is big power of these group, and so, I am frustrating to that I have never had these experience.
Finally, related with this texts, I remember one of my favorite word. "The person who don`t willing to do foolish behavior is less wiser than the person thinks to himself."
Hi Freddy,
返信削除I too have a July birthday (although I believe we have different astrological signs).
Even if you don't get presents on your birthday, I hope you can find a way to make the day special. Perhaps you can go on a trip somewhere, or treat yourself to a special meal, or buy yourself a present. Take care of yourself, perhaps especially if you are feeling others are not taking care of you.
