Another day...

As the days drew closer, I started to wonder if this year was going to be any different... I was in fact going past the first quarter of my life and into the second.... but as I sit here today and look back...nothing seems different; the first 26 years of my life seem as if they all happened in one day.... i remember instances from when i was 2 and from when i was 12..... but on most days i cant remember things i did just hours ago...

But the truth is so much has changed, I am no longer a little girl who can hide behind her mom's sari when scared but instead I am woman who is expected to fight my own battles....I am wife who is expected to love and be always by her husband's side... I am daughter who worries about her parents since she can't be with them...I am sister who is no longer just an annoying little brat who follows her older sister around (well maybe) but can also be a pillar of support when needed.... I am an aunt (and godmother) to two wonder kids who bring a smile to my face every time I think about them.... I am a woman who many expect (and hope) to see become a mother soon.... I am a friend who believes that true friendship is stronger than family and I am a human being who knows that God has a plan for everyone....

As this day passes I realize that even though everything seems unchanged, so much has changed.... Along with my age thankfully I have grown.... I am still stubborn, opinionated, loving, annoying etc. but the one thing that really hasn't changed is that God has always blessed me with people in my life love and lead me in a path that was truly meant for me....

Thank you for being in my life and being there when i have needed you the most....
