We age not by years but by stories

We age not by years but by stories

Last year, I foolishly thought I’d actually have a normal birthday because things would be back to normal, right? Wrong. No parties this year – that includes no weird social distance party. No drive-by birthday party. But birthday protests are cool.

Clearly I don’t take birthday’s seriously. There’s already too much going on in the world for my birthday to matter. I’m trying to make the most of the situation so that I can look back that is more meaningful than an uncelebrated birthday. People who seek to create moments should not mind the passing of time and getting older. It’s a privilege denied by many.
