I wasn’t the girl who dreamed of her wedding day, thought more about paving my own way, but I panicked around 21, when all my friends had wed and I was no longer young.

Your birthday’s coming soon. I’ll celebrate alone this year like all the others, rejoicing the day you were born, mourning the day He took you home.
