i've been tied up with work, school, & a sick cat,
and today is bob's birthday.
but i've managed to make time & create space to embrace this special day.
birthdays are an interesting phenomenon.
they're a celebration of life & the uniqueness of each person,
but they can also be times of stress & the unpleasantry of unmet expectations.
today, i'm going easy on myself & bob so we can truly enjoy his day.
this year, passion is about celebrating the celebrations,
not freaking out & worrying over them.
after all, it's the improvised moments that mean the most in the end.
