This year, my birthday was on a Friday, which happens to be my favourite day of the week. I worked from home and received an influx of calls and wonderful well wishes from those near and far. I went to the gym after work and then ventured to my friend's place for dinner. We shared my favorite pasta dish, macaroni and cheese, followed by a delicious lemon cheesecake dessert. We lounged on the sofa for the rest of the evening as we sipped red wine, catching up and watching series. The next weekend, on the morning of Sunday, 28th May, three of my friends met me at the Zeitz Mocaa at 10 o'clock for a long stroll through the art gallery. Afterwards, and as a belated celebration, we went for lunch next door at the Silo hotel and spent the afternoon relishing in each other's company while indulging in amazing food and sharing stories with loads of laughter in between.
I received the loveliest gifts, from flowers to jewellery, and to sum it all up, it was a super sweet time filled with the most heartwarming surprises.
I realised that I am blessed in so many ways and am truly grateful to be surrounded by good people—people who are good to me and good for me. They are incredible individuals whose precious presence makes my soul smile.
