Happy Birthday to You

For most people, birthdays were once just another day. Industrialization changed that.

A few decades back, when the tradition of celebrating the birthday was still new, some forces opposed it. But the idea of celebrating this tradition is non-controversial nowadays, and people enjoy these things. Many people celebrate their birthdays because there is a particular time in their lives that they will treasure forever. We all get excited for the special day when we turn a year older, yeah! our birthday. Moreover, a birthday party can be a chance to reconnect with friends and family members who are far away from us. Birthdays also allow reflection on the year that has passed and make us able to look ahead to what it has in store for us for the coming year. If we talk about the different ways people celebrate their birthdays, it’s impossible not to admire them.

There is a specific sensation of nostalgia when you look at how people usually take part in this tradition and even consider it a norm. As for me, I think such a celebration is more than just a moment to enjoy our day, or even get into our mood. It is the moment to celebrate what is important to us. Different people celebrate their birthdays in different ways, but all of those ways are connected, with some types of celebrations and some symbolic meanings. In general terms, this celebration usually comes from the past events. Even the most modern families still enjoy the experience of festivities and traditions, such as preparing a special cake for the event.

At a young age, parents usually spend quite a lot of time talking to you and planning the things for your next year. At each moment of life, you have a specific dream and try to achieve it. Commonly people make self-promises on their birthdays and devise a plan for the coming year. Parents want to know what kind of help they can give their children for success. People spend the birthday in different ways like throwing a huge party, an informal event, or a quiet dinner. Most kids enjoy celebrating birthdays with a traditional cake and present party with friends; likewise, some adults prefer to have dinner with close friends only to enjoy the meal together as everyone does not like noisy parties.

There are plenty of other options to do on your birthday: you can choose between several TV shows, movies, or cartoons to watch with your family. You can also take photos of yourself or may act like an imaginary character the whole day. A birthday is always a great opportunity to share emotions with our closest friends and family members. Birthdays are usually a happy occasion for everyone. On your birthday, there are numerous wonderful things you can expect, like some amazing gifts or a surprise birthday party. However, people usually do their best not only to celebrate but also to feel a little less alone.

The birthday celebration is a chance to share some feelings with everybody you care about because being a member of society we live in a world full of social norms that we should follow. The thing that counts the most is your the day of your birth as a person. Thus, we all need a certain approach for celebrating this day. There are lots of things that may seem complicated, however, once you express a lot of your emotions, your birthday will become not only memorable but also special. So, it is worth doing something special for your birthday! It is wise to understand that a birthday is a moment of self-realization. Every human needs it, and if you choose not to share it with anybody then you are missing out on this special occasion. So, choose wisely!

Some people connect birthday celebration with maturity or immaturity but in my point of view: celebrating a birthday does not make you immature. Whether you are 20 or 80 years old, I think everyone must celebrate their special day in the best possible way.

Happy Birthday 🙂
