A beautiful thought about "birthdays"...
Well, let’s first consider birthdays. Like most holidays, birthdays privilege one day over another and, thereby, run the risk of subverting mindfulness (because all days can be regarded as special). At least once a year we remember we are alive, and awaken to the precious possibility that this life represents. Maybe.
In this sense, every day is our birthday. In fact, every moment is a birthday — a birth into this moment.
