Do you know how nice a feeling it is when someone or a group of lovely someones works out all the details and absolutely ensures that your happiness is the only concern for you when it's your birthday? Even if they haven't thought of everything, people doing things like this routinely will check for verbal confirmation that yes, you are indeed enjoying your special day.
That's not what it was like when I went home for my Birthday.
So what happenned? I'm not going to say. I try to avoid going into details on personal matters on here and in general; I don't believe bitching or feeling depressed and doomed by genetics is anywhere near productive. But I did get an important lesson out of this.
As phrased by a good friend: "The only thing a child owes a parent is his or her own happiness."
Well put.
