What do birthdays mean to you?
What do you love about birthdays? What don't you like? Some people love celebrations; others balk at being the center of attention. Some people appreciate the marking of another year; others dread the reminder of passing time. Some people like taking the day to reflect on what they've learned and how they've grown; others think every day is special. What about you? When is your next birthday, and are you looking forward to it?
