Birthday

damian jas
My 22nd year in this big beautiful world has been amazing. I gave birth, I loved fiercely and deeply, I developed spiritually, I made new friends and renewed old friendships. I lost a few too but I do not grieve, I know that our paths will meet again when the time is right. I have found an endless well of optimism and joy both in myself and in the laughter of friends and family. All I need for a gift is the smile of a friend, your smile!

I hope that I have become a little smarter this year too, maybe even wiser. I have a lot more patience now, that is for sure. Here is to my 23rd year of life, love and happiness:

Happy Birthday to me!
