Hi September, Hello Birthday Month…

September is hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Where my Libras at? My birthday month is here, and I couldn’t be more grateful to turn a year older. This is a significant birthday for me more like a return to self and I couldn’t be more excited. September marks the onset of autumn in the Northern Hemisphere and spring in the Southern Hemisphere and anyone who knows me knows that these two are my best seasons, I am a spring/autumn girl. I love autumn, leaves changing colour, it’s not too cold but cold enough to be warm and cozy indoors. I love spring, flowers blossoming everywhere and the onset of sunny colourful days.

 

Speaking of flowers blossoming in spring, there was a whole discourse on Twitter the other day about romantic partners gifting flowers or the lack thereof. Which left me wondering if some people’s love of flowers is more social media romance conditioning than an actual love of flowers. Because some people live in houses with backyards, front yards, side yards you name it with nary a flower bush in sight, but they say they love flowers. Real flower lovers with a yard will have a flower bush or two, I have seen flower lovers who live in flats/apartments grow flowers in their balcony. So, do you really love flowers in a romantic gesture kind of way, or has social media conditioned you to love flowers in a romantic gesture kind of way? I do not really care for flowers as a gift romantic or otherwise, I mean there are pretty to look at, but they really are not my thing, I would grow flowers however if I had a yard because they make the yard look pretty, but I wouldn’t be heartbroken if someone didn’t get me flowers no matter the occasion.

 

If anything, I would prefer a useful plant like an aloe vera you know something I can actually use or some herbs, I love fresh herbs, flowers as a gift not so much. Speaking of gifts, I am accepting gifts all month for my birthday so if you want to send me a gift you can do so via my PayPal at bonyolydia@gmail.com.  If you would like to use a different method, please send me a message using the same email address for my details. Thanks everyone and may you have a blessed, bountiful and abundant month.

ITS MY BIRTHDAY!!!

I actually share my birthday with four people that I know personally and two that I know of by association. One of those people I know personally, has the same first name as me and went to the same high school as me and I only just met her two years ago!  It was such an interesting coincidence. The other even more interesting coincidence is that I share the exact same birth date, month and year with a former housemate. We found out in the most interesting way. While at university, back then we had to physically submit council tax exemption letters from our school to the local council, so as not to be liable to paying council tax for our student housing. This particular housemate was tasked with presenting the letters to the council since she had some free time, so after collecting them she goes through them to make sure all the details are correct, gets to mine and exclaims “you stole my birthday!!!” hahaha it was the funniest scene ever, you had to be there to see it. Good times! Two baby girls born on the same day on different continents, met years later as undergraduates living in the same house in a third continent. Anyway the second half of this year has been amazing to me; God has been so good I am so grateful for all the blessings and looking forward to many more. Here’s to an amazing birthday! I haven’t really celebrated my birthday properly in a few years so this is one is going be awesome! I have a very big wish for this birthday and I know it will come true!
