thought on 23 of May.
Just as every year, 23 of May has come and passed. The way of spending this particular day has been differ from each year, but in recent few years I tend to think about my other friend who was born in an exact same day but in other side of the world. Due to the high, unreasonable expectation, the birthday itself often leave me a disappointment somehow, but finding someone who was sharing birthday (first and only one time to meet in such a person in my life) from another country has always made me excite and feel a miracle of once in a million theory.
So as an annual ritual, we exchange sms (international sms is something slightly more than e-mail, isn' it ? ) for greets a birthday for each other. He said there weren't particularly plan for that night because too many times celebration in the past, and I started to understand his feeling after finished my night for the 23. Sushi was delicious, I was bit confused by the rush of lot of fishes in sushi bar in Tokyo ( it's basically just a combination of the Tuna, Salmon, Vegetable in the Europe), but enjoyed the taste of my home country after all. But in the end, I found myself as unable to be in the mood of celebration for 100 percent without any particular reason.
I remembered that once my ex told me as she is not so happy about her birthday anymore because of the age (she was becoming 26? at that time), and guess I am just entering this age of denial now. Once it comes, the birthday is not a day for exciting about the world which is yet hasn't been conquered by ones hand and open up its unlimited capacity for the youthfulness, but rather the day for dedicated to looking back what you have done in the past one year. After reaching this conclusion (a next day), I suggested my friend to organize meeting for next year, and dedicate our special day for this time for the retrospection. He seems to like this idea but want to do it in somewhere in the East Asia...though I believe some calm European country side in full of nature is more suitable for our moment of retrospection. It's going to be an eighth year since we have met first time, and wherever it'll be, I hope it's going to be a good moment for us.
Anyway, to finish my best month of the year, I will ask my favorite movie and wine for a company of tonight. Cheers for all of those who were born in 23 of May. After all, we are lucky to be born in the most beautiful month of the year :-)
P.S. My personal congratulation for ashakoshka . I'm looking forward to see you and baby's face soon. See, May is best month for everyone ;-)
