Why do people celebrate their birthday??

Birthday is the date when u come to this world. Every year, people around the world celebrate their birthday. Every culture has the tradition to celebrate birthday. This day you are sure that u just fnished one year from ur lifespan and you are more closer to death. So, why to be so merry about the birthday and celebrate it?

Birthdays of children are celebrated mandatorily with great joy. Adults celebrate their birthday according to their wish. The whole idea is to remember the day u have stepped in this world. But as age increases, most of people dont celebrate their birthday. They argue they r not kids. In a way, they are trying to explain the life is no more dreams and why to be so happy about the birthday when u know that u r goin to die one day.

The problem arises here. The candour we had in childhood are bruised by the harsh realities of life. But one has to be optimistic about the life. If you dont want to shout like kids or you are on self-imposed exile just like me, you can ofcourse celebrate your birthday in the unique way. You can celebrate ur birthday with strangers, with street children, with unprivileged.

What I'm tryin to say is that on this day, u brought joy to your parents. They wanted to make this day a memorable day of their life. As a person grows up, one should try to spread the same happiness throughout his life. Every minute, every second should be the memorable moment of life we can cherish. On this day, one has to give the joy to others. Life is all about giving and taking joy and pains from one another. Make this day a memorable day for urself.
