Birthday Girl

Ladies and Gentlemen, I turn 23 today. And as you turn a year older, you undoubtedly have the urge to look back on your life achievements. So I look back. And the view that greets me is one of an empty space save a few pieces of paper. 4, to be exact. And each piece of paper costs more than the one before. And suddenly, my life is in danger of being turned into a case study for cost-benefit analysis.

But I look ahead of me. And I see that it, too, is an empty space. And I realise that I can use my crayon, my ballpoint, my fountain pen, my colour pencil, my marker... I can use any of these, or all of them, to fill in the space. And it's entirely up to me. And I smile. Oh yeah, we're gonna have some fun! ;)

So here's to writing our own stories, living our own dreams and finding the happiness we were meant to have.

Cheers.
