Today is my birthday!  Aren’t birthdays wonderful?  I find that every year of life gets better and better.  Dh and I every year on our anniversary comment that marriage keeps getting better, and it’s hard to imagine it getting better!  But then it does.  That’s how I feel about my life – I have so many beautiful aspects of my life that I take pleasure in every single day, and still I have a strong feeling that this year will be better than ever!

My Hebrew (Gregorian) birthday was about a week and a half ago, a day when there is a special spiritual power to give blessings and spread positive energy.  I really wanted to take the opportunity then to give all of you here my warmest wishes for love, harmony, joy, prosperity, and meaning in your lives.  Unfortunately, by the time I got online, it was already evening and my birthday was officially over.

But good wishes are never in vain, right?  So whether there’s any special power or not, I send you all my warm and heartfelt blessings for all the positive things you want in your life.

To those of you who preempted this post and privately emailed me your good wishes, thank you for your wishes and for being part of my life!  I’m so amazed by people who not only remember the birthdays of other people, but actually take the time from their busy lives to send good wishes.

Looking forward to another amazing year here with you all!

Avivah
