Overture: Nothing’s new about this. I shut my birthday wishers – family and friends.
Turning a year older and I was so engrossed with bad thoughts. Yesterday is that day of overthinking and overreacting – blame the hormones. Honestly, I was wanting to receive gifts and to read touching messages (laughing hard). Normally, I would treat my family, officemates and few close friends – from small office snacks, to (buffet) lunch or dinner or overnight accommodation or free flight/s. This gesture had become incessant that I just have to cut the “fun” and put my brand of drama.
So here, the world is really unfair. Undeniably unfair! I wanted to speak my mind but I guess I will just put more actions than mere words. From now on, expect least from me. If it’s not my birthday, I should not spend so much money. If they forget about the occasion and delay the obligatory gift (insert office guys here), then no free snack. If I suggested what I want to get (and you actually did the same), will that costs you too much trouble giving it?
Yes, it’s better to give that to receive. Personally, I feel more blessed if I share what I have. Yada yada yada.
Prologue: Maybe I was teaching people around me lessons on how to treat me right or did I just never demanded a little? Or I just turned materialistic?
