THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT YOUR BIRTH DAY!

in life •  7 years ago  (edited)

 


Has your birth day ever been forgotten by someone you love and you  became angry and unhappy about it? Well the shocking truth is that it  wasn't their fault that they forgot your birthday and didn't send you  birthday wishes. The fault is totally yours and I will tell you why.

Mark  Twain, an inspirational writer once said, "the two most important days  in a man's life is the day he was born and the day he finds out why." 

Then  one day I listened to a powerful audio message by one inspired preacher  titled: "20 things to do before you are 30" which threw further light  on Mark Twain's quote:

In one of the key  points of the message, he said your birthday should be a celebration of  the reason you were born. He said you have no reason to celebrate your  birthday if you can't tell your purpose on earth (this excludes  children).

While it is a good thing to have  people's birthday's on our minds and send them wishes, the hard truth is  that if people don't remember your birth day, it is your fault. Because  if you are fulfilling purpose, it means your life must be a blessing to  others in some way and people will hold you dear and always have you on  their minds.

Haven't you noticed that the  birthday wishes of important people in the society appear in the pages  of newspapers, some even coming from people they don't even know or  haven't even met before. This is because these people are adding value to lives, hence their benefactors cannot afford to forget their  birthdays and use it as a good opportunity to send them wishes.

In  our world of misplaced priorities today, you will find people drawing  up huge budgets to throw parties when they can't simply tell anyone why  they were born. Better still, if you took this money to the orphanage, or you used it to pay someone else's school fees, or to alleviate the  suffering of a widow, that is a good place to start blessing lives.

Friend, what are you gonna do on your next birthday?????
