Of birthdays and another leaf to turn

I just came from a surprise birthday celeb from my team in the office. 

Tomorrow, I turn another leaf. 

Another year.

Thank you, God - for all the experiences. They were all great. Everything was awesome. 

Here's to more birthdays, wonderful friendships and great loves. 

Of extended families

Today, I realized I missed one of my godfathers. Or the only godfather I had during my baptism. 

He used to be really tight with the family but something happened a few years ago that caused a falling out with my parents. 

I actually spent more time with him during my childhood than I did with my Dad.

Family fights. 

Very tricky. 

But then --- I guess it's up to me to fix it. 

Again.
