Birthday Bash or Smash

Hello,

It happens to be my birthday today :) Last night I had a bunch of family around for my birthday as it was a public holiday. After dinner, I got a bit upset and I'm not entirely sure why, but I think it has to do with the fact that this was my first birthday not spent at my old house, or with my parents. And yes, i am growing up, but I think you are never too old to miss things, or even feel things.

Anyway, my boyfriend Kyle was amazing, he spoilt me rotten, pretty much made the entire dinner, and was just so good to me. I am at work and to be quiet frank there are a good couple of places I would rather be than here right now. Everybody is in a mood. Nobody would even make me tea. I mean really.
is it that hard? Which brings me to my question, what does it take to be nice to somebody?
Is it really that much effort? Instead of shooting somebody else if you have time, to help them out? Or to open the door for someone before yourself.  Today a girl shut a door in my face, after i waited for her and her troop to leave the building. Was it necessary, or does she just not have manners.

These days I do not know what common courtesy is, I mean I have always been a relatively polite person, wait until everyone has finished eating before you leave the table, answer the phone with good manners, eat with your mouth closed. It just seems these days nobody knows how to act appropriately, and to be frank it scares me. My children will most definitely be raised to greet, and to be polite and to help. Does it really mean going out of your way? I think not, I think it just makes people appreciate you ever so slightly more.

I suppose each to his own though.
Well all I can say is that I cannot wait to get home to my boyfriend who will surely treat me like I'm the queen of the world.

Keep well,

AbiD
