Theatrical Muse While I am aware of where in the cycle commemorates the day of my birth, I see no cause for celebration. The day had no significance before I existed and other than my having come into reality at that point, nothing about the day was out of the ordinary.
There was no conjunction of the stars, no prophecized event; it was a day like any other.
Birthdays, as an event, confuse me. Why would one bother to treat someone anymore special on this day than any other? What is so wonderous about it that gifts are warranted?
I have no use for birthdays, nor do I celebrate them for others when their time in the cycle comes around again.
