I just saw this post, I have been spending a lot of time on the 30 Day Challenge. 🙂
First and most important, what kind of vegan cake did you have? After all the desert is the best part of a birthday! 😉

I really enjoyed reading this post, because I am 28. I don’t really give much thought to age, but 28 was a little odd for me. I had this real feeling that there were so many things I wanted to do, yet hadn’t done any of it, or at least very little. It was kind of a bummer. 🙁 But I have been thinking really hard not to think like that, and look at things in a brighter light. Now you have me think that 29 sounds like it will be better! LOL 🙂

Thanks!

Happy Birthday, Brooke! I hope you had an awesome celebration with family and friends and I hope all of your dreams and wishes come true this year! Last month I had a birthday on February 10th and I’m now 44-years-old. Can you imagine where you’ll be when you turn 44 some day? I think 44 is just a number, and because I’m a vegan, I hope I’ll live forever. Of course, when I turn 45 next year I’ll be half-way to 50, and 50 is a very magical number. 50 means I’ll have lived half my life while everything around me is constantly changing. Sadly, turning 50 also means I’ll inevitably lose older family members or friends to age, disease, injury and other unforeseen circumstances which are not pleasant. But I think death reminds us of how precious and important life really is. As artists, I think we have a responsibility to enjoy life and be as happy and creative as possible while making our world a better place to live. By following your blog, I’ve learned that you are living life to the fullest, Brooke. You are the dreamer and the dream. You are the winner and the magician of light and creativity with your camera. Your are the miracle that makes your life worth living for, so hold on to what you love most today and never let it go. Never let it go! I hope you have an awesome week, and never stop taking the photos that you are most passion about in your heart. Keep up the awesome work and never quit.

Thank you for this post as it jogged my own memory to a time with my grandmother (I lost her 17 years ago-I was 21 and had just had my first child 2 weeks prior). But anyway, the memory is funny and is similar in that I idolized something about her but something quite out of the ordinary. She had a little bit of a double chin. Lol. She would complain about it but as a little kid (maybe 3-4) I found it beautiful because it was part of her. She would burst out in laughter that I can still hear whenever I would ask her when I would get my double chin. Now, I’m 38 and not so anxious to have one but I still remember hers fondly! And about your message regarding feeling fulfilled? I totally felt the same way and at 38, I can tell you that if you keep up having the right frame of mind, it only gets better!
