always have a home too small to fit all of your friends

I was just blowing out the candles on my birthday cake when I heard a metallic thump and crash outside of my building. I went to a window and looked out to see a man motionless on his side in the middle of the road, head down. I could hear a man yelling "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god" repeatedly. Emergency teams responded and now we can only hope for the best for him.

On a day of celebrating the beginning of my life, it puts it all in perspective. Life is too fleeting to not be thankful for every moment. I know I we can all forget that at times, but we have to always count our blessings.
