The nicest thing

I had an amazing birthday party yesterday. I couldn't have wished for anything else. It was perfect: my brother and his girlfriend J, my bfriend D, my best friend M and her husband V, my closest friends in London and ex colleagues were there... It was an amazing turnout. Also, I got some incredible presents. Each and every one so thought through and great. It just goes to show how well they know me... I love them so much. 

One special gift stood out among all the amazing presents. A gift that cannot be bought with money. It was a poem from a very special person in my life. I can't even begin to describe how honoured I feel, how much it means to me and how beautiful I think it is. This is something very special that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

If this is how it feels to be thirty I have not the slightest thing against it! Bring it on!
