love life

Today may have been one of the most amazing days ever. I spent my early 17th birthday with my family and I don't think I've ever felt so connected with them. I guess I don't realise that not everyone has the privilege of such a close knit family where we all know each other so well and we could all be considered one big "immediate" family. I forget that we were once young infants, playing together in one massive house where we all lived together. Riding down to the creek, playing hide and seek, making messy smoothies, and gaming on the super nintendo. Thinking back now they all seem like such distant memories. It kinda makes me sad to know that it's all in the past and we've all grown up into teenagers and young adults. But I am glad that we have all remained close and not drifting apart as many people do when they grow up. That makes me happy.

On a lighter note, I have to admit one of the things that made this day so great for me is that I am now a proud owner of my very first MAC product. I never thought I'd get hold of one, but my oh so generous cousin has bought me one for my birthday. I was overwhelmed with happiness and forever grateful. This may seem a tad dramatic but I just love how well my whole family knows me. There are definitely people who don't have such a blessed family. I grant this lovely gift of a family on everyone and wish that we can all experience such love.

I hope we never change because I can't imagine life without you guys
