Happy Birthday

Time & Birthdays are funny things.  If you think about it, neither really exist.  Let me explain (it's not as morbid as you think).  We create time based on arbitrary placing of numbers which loosely connect to the rising and setting of the sun.  When, truthfully, time does not exist because this moment that you are in right now can feel like a minute when it is really 10 minutes therefore, our concept of time does not exist.  For example, driving home from work takes a few metaphoric seconds because we usually don't pay so much attention but when we are with good company, time can last forever.  We create our time.  We also create our concept of birthday.  Yes, we were born on a certain day in this arbitrary, perfectly random date of October 30, 2012.  When, truthfully, you are reborn with every inhale as life and every exhale as a death of that moment.  You are born every day, every moment, every year, every decade, every breath...and we must celebrate ALL of them.  And a very merry un-birthday to you.
