There's Nothing Like Knowing Yourself... ("Don't Rush Me" Jean Grae)
Today is my 22nd birthday. Wow. Twenty-two.
Ever since my 16th birthday my birthday has had a different feel to it. The celebrations and ice cream cake are not the only thing I am thinking about.(with the exception of turning 21).
I tend to get very introspective on January 30th. I think about everything (more than usual) like- where I am, what I'm doing and where I'm going. I think about how blessed I am. I think about the things that went wrong in the previous year and the things that went right. Overall, 21 was a good year. It was a transition year for me. It's all starting to make sense~ (a response to Common's third album One Day It'll all Make Sense).
Well, another year is completed on my journey to get to know myself and here's to another blessed year! :)

i think as well as get older we begin to realize a few things about life, growing up and ourselves. congrats on one more step into the adult world!
HAPPY BELATED~!
I reflect on my birthday each year too. The first half of my 26th year on this planet...was quite depressing but I'm striving to make the second half of 26...a blast!
cheers!!! i love birthdays! i don't normally do too much introspection, but i love a good party!
