I was just thinking a different way to celebrate my birthday next month. I want to go and watch a stage play but there are no good shows. What is another alternative for a play? I just want to spend a fun but quite day with my man and have dinner with my mom and siblings. Something like that. What about you? How do you usually celebrate your birthday?

Your birthday is God's gift to your parents. Pay it forward. On your birthday do something good for someone. That way you become not only a gift to your parents but a gift to the people that revolve around your world. It'll make you feel good to be alive too :D

wow! great! oh yeah just so you know, I'm not that religious but the feeling of being able to help someone is awesome and it makes you rethink the things you've done in life and your value as a human being to others

Well lets see. Last year my husband and I went out to see a band play. It was a band my sister's ex was in. She and her husband went and so did my parents and my best friend. My sister's birthday and mine are only 2 days apart. So sometimes we do stuff like that together. The year before that we did a couples thing. We went out to dinner, bowling and then saw a movie. This year I haven't completely decided yet what I want to do. I'm thinking maybe my first tattoo! I was going to wait till my 30th birthday which is next year, but I figured what the heck. So I might do that, and go out or something. My mom usually has a sunday dinner for me and my sister on the sunday closest to our birthdays too.

YOu should do what you enjoy. I know someone who went upp in a hot air ballon for her birthday. That would have been really cool. Of course something like a parchute jump would hve been really cool. That would be nice.

Hello! Since I graduated form high school, I never celebrated my birthday, so when that day comes, I just attend a mass in the church and thank God for another opportunity to live and breath a new day, then I will light a candle as a thanksgiving. I would just treat my friends with ice cream.hehe

Thank you. That is so nice. I will also light a candle and make a wish instead of buying a birthday cake.heheh

Even though it's already been mentioned, for my 45th birthday, my friends took me up in a hot-air balloon. It was really cool and something you won't forget. A one-day whitewater rafting trip would be fun too (that is, if you have whitewater around.) I did that on my 40th birthday. For my 50th birthday, I went golfing. For my 60th birthday, we had a huge party; kind of like my 30th birthday. Have a happy birthday!

Thank you. Your birthdays are really exciting! I wish I can do the same. I am really trying to work hard this year so we can start a business. I want to do all this kind of exciting things and travel. Thanks again.

When I am teenage I like having party to celebrate my birthday, but now I prefer a family and friend dinner to celebrate it.

I only had one birthday party in my entire life and that was when I was 18. It was fun but I'm not much of a party girl. I just want to spend my birthday with family and close friends.
