Boundaries of Experience

A Priceless Day… March 1, 2009

“Happy Birthday To You, Happy Birthday To You…”
“Congratulations, you are now 18”
“Have a blessed year ahead!”

These were the words that resonated in my head and heart ON THIS DAY the 20th of Feb, my birthday.

I have so many reasons why I call this day a PRICELESS DAY!

On this day… I was born
On this day… I turned 1,2,3,4, … ,17
On this day… I turned 18
On this day… My perspectives of life evolved to yet another level
And on this day… Words fall short to describe what’s on my heart.

About a month before this day, I thought to myself…
“I’ll be 18!… So what?” (woohoo… I can watch M18!, drive a car!,buy a whisky, visit PUBs,)
(hmm…well to me, all those are child’s play … Lol)

The real answer only came ON THIS DAY …

Before I share what being 18 means to me…
I’d like to show my utmost sincere gratefulness to all those who has made THIS DAY special for me…

My beloveth family! … Sisters and bro, mum and dad

My dear vibe members!

All those friends out there sent me birthday wishes on facebook and beyond…

Your seemingly small acts have traveled a thousand miles into my heart!…they aren’t small after all.

Now back to what being an adult, at least a young one, means to me.

Funny enough ON THIS DAY… I woke up the latest, lying in bed and doing nothing at home almost all day till evening.

In the evening I left for a Young Adult Conference CRASH ‘09 (a perfect way to start ur young adult life)

It was in this conference that my eyes were really opened to what it means to be an adult…
A strengthening of core values and beliefs took place…
And a foundation for a whole new set of perspectives about life was built…ON THIS DAY…
