Most people would like their birthdays to be remembered and celebrated as a happy occasion.I could recalled how my parents used to celebrate my birthdays. There were always plenty of food to eat, games to play, friends to chat with and songs to sing together usually karaoke and presents as well.
However, for the last few years, I had a different wish on my birthday. I decided that on my birthday, I shall not kill or eat any animals. I don't feel nice to order chickens or ducks or cows to be killed and cooked for my birthdays
So I made my birthday as meatless day and I invited my friends to celebrate it along with me. I will get at least 5 friends to join me and they did. They not only fulfill my wish on my birthday but learnt not to eat too much meat which so healthy for them.I will also do special prayer and bless all those special friends of mine who celebrated meatless day on my birthday. How do you celebrate your birthday?

It's a very good birthday wishes. It's not only good for the animals, but it's also reminding your friends to practice the healthy diet.
I seldom celebrate my birthday. It's not much different from the rest of the days. But I usually will give a treat to close friends on that day.
Happy posting and have a nice day!

It's good way to give birthday treat in such a way! People around you are happy for sure. I feel happy too when somebody give me sweet and chocolate as a token of good wishes.
Well, I seldom buy sweet and distribute in such way. The only time I do this is when I am back from a vacation abroad. I will distribute sweets and chocolates to my colleagues.
Happy posting and have a nice day!

Thanks so much. Some of my friends really made an effort to abstain from meat. I was very happy for them as they value my friendship, loves animals and observe healthy diet on my birthday.
You should celebrate all your birthdays and be happy with people who are close to you for it is a special day. Giving treats to your close friends is a good way of celebrating your birthday. I gave a sweet to everyone at my working place. It made me happy when they smiled at me and wished me Happy Birthday or just thanked me. Consequently, I have more friends than I could remember.
Occasionally, I will buy sweets or chocolates and pass it to colleagues,friends or anyone who I happen to meet. It is so nice for it makes them feel so happy. Have you treat your friends like this?

My birthday this year is going to be a fun one. My birthday is october 14th. It just so happens this year that megadeth, slayer and anthrax are playing close to me in fort wayne. It happened to be the closest show to me in fort wayne on my birthday. So I will have a fun day in fort wayne this year. Spending most of my day there shopping and going out to eat. Then at night time or around then will be a good show.

I prefer to do something simple on my birthday with the people I love. I spend time with a friend I haven't seen for a while or visit family. I see it as an excuse to be around the people I wouldn't normally get to see.

That is a good way of celebrating your birthday, ambercatharine. It is your day to make yourself happy and to share your happiness with all the people and friends you like. They are more than happy to celebrate this special day along with you.It is indeed good of you to make it a point to keep in touch with all your friends and family whom you have not seen for a while.
Your birthday is a day of great blessings!
