No sé si a ustedes también les pasa pero el hecho de celebrar otro año más de vida para mí es algo especial, es un momento que asoció con fiesta, dulces, pasapalos, bebidas y sobre todo regalos jajaja más sin embargo este año honestamente no deseaba hacer esas cosas, quizás la edad y el cúmulo de responsabilidades que me han tenido agotada me hicieron anhelar un día en spa junto a mis amigas sin tener que preocuparme por nada. Está decisión se las notifique a todas y estuvieron de acuerdo en hacerlo como a mi me gustaría. Estuve averiguando pero no encontré un lugar así en mi ciudad, por lo que se me ocurrió entonces un plan B, el cual sería reunirnos en un sitio en donde pudiéramos compartir tranquilamente un café y una merienda, lo importante era estar juntas.
I don't know if it happens to you too but celebrating another year of life for me is something special, it's a moment that I associate with parties, sweets, snacks, drinks and above all gifts hahaha but this year I honestly did not want to do those things, perhaps age and the accumulation of responsibilities that have had me exhausted made me long for a day at the spa with my friends without having to worry about anything. I notified all of them about this decision and they agreed to do it the way I would like. I was looking around but I couldn't find a place like that in my city, so I came up with a plan B, which would be to meet in a place where we could share a coffee and a snack, the important thing was to be together.
Since the date fell on a Wednesday, it seemed appropriate to meet early because we all had work the next day, and those of us with children had to get up early to take the kids to school on the way. For these reasons I chose a place where both adults and children could be entertained, we had the option of having a wide menu to suit everyone's taste and the cake could be bought there and then. Always accommodating, most of them were present and those who could not go, I know it was for reasons beyond their control, but they were still in my heart and mind.
I can boast that my friends exceeded all expectations I had for that day, I did not count that between them they had planned something better for me. First they surprised me by giving me a gift for a facial cleansing in a beauty salon, then they told me that I have a paid makeup in a store that I could pick it up whenever I wanted, in the evening when we met they asked for sangria to toast, they showed up with a quesillo that I love, they also left me a card with a paid pedicure, hair straightening, serum, makeup remover and all the things they know I like hahaha too spoiled.
My greatest desire was to be surrounded by the people I love, and through their gestures they made me feel that I had a really happy birthday. What a pleasure to sit at a table to talk openly, laugh out loud, share anecdotes, feel that there are people who care about you and want to make you feel special through a gesture that beyond the material is the fact that they took the time to organize something according to my wishes, that they had the initiative to communicate with each other to coordinate even the details that they would give me and above all to accompany me despite the fatigue, the routine or any personal situation.
Truly the greatest fortune that someone can have is to have chosen friends who beyond the blood bond become brothers and sisters in life, those unconditional ones, with whom you know you can count on when everything is not so good, who listen to you without judging, who advise, care, empathize, respect, understand and value what you are. When we coincide with people like that we have to treasure them and give them the importance they deserve. I feel deeply grateful for my friendships, that's why I show them off with great pride, because those faces that you know today through photos represent a very important love and loyalty in the passing of my days.
Greetings and good vibes to all ✌️❤️
