Another Year

Mother (Aurobindo Ashram) always said people are most receptive on their birthdays.I always think it to be true, I was and always am very excited about my birthday. I feel very close to the Divine and I always consider it one of my important days( My wedding anniversary being another).As the day opens up, I make new discoveries about my near and dear.Are they genuinely happy for me or are they just doing lip service.I notice their enthusiasm, the efforts they go through to make sure" my day " is perfect.
My older son leaves no stone unturned to make my day and I am very very grateful for him.It makes me feel loved and wanted and cared for. My husband is of course the brain behind the celebrations but Sai is the creative director. He plans for weeks together on how to celebrate it and succeeds. My mom-in -law is another person I need to talk about too: she always insists and makes sure I enjoy my day
There is this saying," If you love something, set it free. If it comes back it is yours, if it doesn't it never was yours"On my birthday, I see my love coming back to me and I feel proud that my family accepted my love and are returning my love multifolds.
