A Dozen Wish For My Birthday Bliss

I'm turning 27 this month.

Happy? Indeed.

Scared? A bit.

27-years is not a little time for a girl to go through in this world.

I have been learning so much through bad times and good times.

I learn that everything in life is about choice.

Bad start-good start, bad luck-good luck, bad decision-good decision, bad ending-good ending, name it all.

You make your own story.

You are your own director.

I learn that in this complicated life I am living in, there's a power from somewhere beyond my imagination that always turn something bad into good things.

You can call it names like whoever you like it. I call it Mr. G.

I don't even know how to call it sometimes, a He or a She, for Mr. G sometimes has no gender to me. It can be the God I believe in or it may be my consciousness. Oh well, who knows. Maybe it will be better to call it a It, literally.

It turned my nightmares that I used to call my failure into stepping stones that help me reach something I thought was very high before.

Now I touch the sky and often sit on cloud nine.

I didn't look back to my past, but I don't want to forget it either. 

My past is what making me today and I am grateful for having a chance to experience them all.

What doesn't kill me will always make me stronger.

And when a person is getting stronger, even great pain is nothing to worry about.

I learn that nothing in this world is everlasting.

Laughter will subside and tears will get dried.

Friends will be apart and haters will unite.

Sometimes you are on top and the other time you will be drowned.

So why do we need to worry too much?

I learn that no one can really help you as much as you help yourself.

What is the use to pray a lot but you just laid back on your seat?

Does miracle come in form of a sprinkle of magic dust?

I learn to believe that God does make a way when there seems to be no way. 

He makes things happen even when we think it can't be happened.

I learn that hope, faith and love are the recipes to have a peaceful life.

You may be kicked, dumped, rejected or ejected many times.

But Hope will make you survive, Faith will make you move on and Love will make you strong.

I learn that we cannot control the presence of people who come to our life.

But we can choose who deserve to stay and who need to leave.

I learn that God has a reason which we hardly understood sometimes why He let people come into and go out of our life.

When there's a farewell, God always let you welcome a new sweet lovely hello.

Rain will stop falling and sun will shine brightly.

Your tears of loosing someone will be replaced with overjoyed of meeting a long-time-no-see best friend who apparently turns to be a sunshine that brighten up your life.

I learn that family is the real home. You may wish not being with them but you will never be able to make them disappear.
You are them and they are you.
No matter what and who you are or will be, they will accept you and never leave you.
I'm turning 27 this month.
Thanks to those who made me cry in pain, you made me a stronger person.
Thanks to those who loved me, you made my heart bigger.
Thanks to those who were worried about me, you let me know that you actually cared.
Thanks to those who left me, you made me realize that nothing lasts forever.
Thanks to all of you for entering my life, you made me who I am today.
You guys are one of the best things that ever happened in my life and I'm so blessed for your presence.
So, I'm turning 27 this month.

Happy? Indeed.

Scared? A bit.
But I choose not to worry.
