How I look at the Birthday

Let's get controversial

The annual awkwardness is around the corner. The birthday is here. I was not celebrating birthdays since by 10th grade. I couldn’t recall the reason it could probably to avoid the spotlight. However with passing years I find more reason not to celebrate it in the conventional way.

What’s the “conventional” celebrations?

  1. Cake Cutting
  2. Throwing party to your dear ones
  3. Getting content with the spotlight

What’s wrong with that - a list?

Fake wishes thanks to social apps

Before the advent of Social apps, the birthdays used to be very personal. Only the people who really remembers my birthdays wishes me. Thanks to the reminder from the apps and social wishing it just compels us to wish the birthday. The wishes evolved into a chore.
