Happy Birthday to me
by Devon on Jun.29, 2009, under Identity, Love, Positivity, Spirituality
Today I’m turning 24 again. This is becoming a habit. But it’s made possible by avoiding the sun, not smoking, not using soap on my face, exercise, lots of water, a relatively clean diet, and using a moisturizer with SPF 15 or higher. Oh, and by laughing at least 10 times a day about something that makes me happy.
In my belief system today is the most important day of my year: The Naming Day. I’m going to go celebrate me. And the goddess couldn’t have given me a more perfect day. The sun is out, the sky is a dark blue, a breeze is whispering across my cheeks, the day creatures are singing/scampering/frolicking, and I have amazing people and dreams in my life.
I was very sad for a few days after the shocking news about MJ’s untimely death. And it still hurts. I just watched Janet Jackson speaking at the BET awards, which was followed by a very moving preformance of “I’ll Be There” by Jamie Foxx. It reminded me of a couple points of Thanksgiving: I was inspired throughout my life by a beautiful soul who will hopefully be at peace; I am beginning a personal cycle of renewal and rejuvenation (which is gracious aging comingled with deepening wisdom); and I am looking forward to making progress on several goals.
Happy new year to you all. I can be egocentric today: It’s my birthday. Thanks for all you do. XO

Happy Birthday! My birthday was one week ago, June 22. I turned 54 for real. Some charitable people guessed 44. I think that you will always look younger than you are. Staying happy is what matters most, regardless of how you look! What does Sean Cody Video #3 mean? Does that mean you have already made two? What name did you use?
