You are very special, and so is your Birthday. Is
there any hard and fast rule for celebrating a birthday by throwing a party,
cutting the cake, or getting fucked up in the bar? Certainly not, and there are
many other ways to treat you on this special day of your life.
Are you wondering to know why should you celebrate
your birthday? And that too every single year? Well, celebrating the birthday
does not mean you have to spend a hefty for hosting a party, or other loud
activities to celebrate. You can plan something simple like being alone in your
house and moving the pages of your album to cherish your childhood memories. A
visit to the church, temple, or mosque, can be on your list of things
to do on your Birthday.
What does a birthday celebration mean? Celebration
means to involve in any celebratory activity, and that too is your way to
recognize the fact that you are alive and healthy and living another year. In
case you are confused and looking for the best ideas to celebrate your birthday
in a better way, then we have some amazing ideas to share. We are sure you will
find them worthy of your celebration.
A visit to the orphanage: There are many unprivileged children in
this world deprived of the basic needs of life. What can be the best way other
than spending some quality time with them visiting an orphanage? On your
birthday, in place of getting a gift, give them gifts, and the return gifts
will be their divine smiles for you. The feeling will be a blessed one, and the
moments unforgettable for you.
Buy something new as your birthday
gift to self: So many things you desire and
wish to have in your life. Your birthday is the best day to pamper yourself
with gifting self. You might be saving long to buy the dream car or the
expensive DSLR camera. Well, it is the day when you can be a little selfish and
buy the dream gift for you.
Donating for a good cause: You are a blessed child of this world and
have almost everything which you wished to have. But many unlucky people are
living in old-age-homes or poor people who remain deprived of happiness. Your
birthday is the day to do something noble, and you can do it by donating a sum
of money for their care and maintenance.
Make your portrait: We agree that digital photography changed the
concept of portrait-making an old affair. But there is nothing bad if you wish
to make your sketch or portrait painted on a canvas. It's possible when you are
a good artist, but what to do if not? Simply book an appointment with one of
the best portrait artists in your city on your birthday. Get your portrait
canvased by an artist to hang it on your walls later. If you wish, you can get
your portrait done on every birthday to record the way you are aging
beautifully, each year.
Meet your first crush: Can you remember the day when your heart said you
are in love? It was a one-sided love from your side, and so you didn’t open up
your heart. Still, he/she was your first crush. Time passed and you progressed
in life, but is there anything bad if you look back remembering your crush?
Certainly not, and you can take the chance to meet your crush and plan a dinner
date with him/her. Yes, it will be a friendly association after such a long
time for your ex-crush, but it will be a new type of feeling good experience on
your birthday.
