secret rain drop #1

I'm 23 years old today. I stayed up til 12:00 in the morning waiting for friends and family to wish me a happy birthday!. I wonder why do i need to know who would remember?
Is it because i don't already know who might remember? or i do know, but i'm afraid they have changed in the last year some how, and wish that they haven't?
I know for a fact that people do change some way or another. That's not what i'm concerned about. I feel like i don't do my best to keep in touch with my old friends. I know it for a fact. Which brings me to the question... Have i changed in the past year?
If i did, i'm not noticing it. I feel the same, just 1 year older!
I was glade to have received so many messages from friends and family. Some i knew they would, which brought a smile to my face.
Some i was surprised they did! which made me so happy and grateful to have them in my life.
And some i thought they would send a message or something but they didn't. And that made me sad inside. My heart felt tighter for a bit. But it's fine, maybe they had good excuses, like they were away for the holidays and they were really busy. Or they were sick and can't reach the phone. Or the saddest excuse of them all, maybe they simply forgot.
I don't hold grudges, but now i know how it feels when I personally forgets one of my friends birthdays. Im guilty as charge! is it a silly excuse that im not good with remembering dates?
I hope its good enough for them to forgive me, my dear friends out there..
It's a new day, a new year. New chances and definitely new mistakes. But hope to get through it with as much grace, a girl like me would offer. Or should i say, a woman like me?
Happy birthday to me...
