birthdays make me sad. i will officially be 1 year closer to death, yet from time to time more people will forget my day. i know i sound childish, like someone who always wants their birthdays celebrated. but that's not the point. i always thought of birthday celebrations as a way to make memories, as i stated, i'm officially 1 year closer to death. is it childish to want to be remembered? i want to be able to live longer than i could, at least in others' memories. edit: my birthday is still a few days from now, but thank you everyone <3.
