What's the point of celebrating?

I've decided no more birthdays for anyone. It's kinda funny, because my sister drove all the way to my house (over 2hrs). Basically with her hand held out. Not sure what she was expecting, especially when she hasn't bought me a birthday or Xmas gift in years.

I bought Oktoberfest tickets for my parents last year. Figured that was a nice present to make my folks happy. Nope! Mum calls up complaining about how miserable dad is on his birthday. She emotionally blackmails me into transferring 100 bucks into their account. When I talked to dad earlier and he seemed fine and happy to me.

There was also that time 2 years ago when I almost died on my birthday, but who cares about that? You guessed it. Nobody! Because I didn't have a single person visit me in hospital.

There's a reason why I hate myself.

Lots of people don't celebrate birthdays as adults. I think it's because they weren't celebrated growing up. I try to do something for people who I care about on their birthdays as well as myself.

These days, I'm amazed at how old I am.

Everett wondered what being the kind of guy that paid attention to what day of the month it was. His feeling a little bad when he did and being unable to become a day minder really did bother him on those special days. He would miss his own birthday if nobody reminded him and st several points in his life he actually did.

That his soon to be ex wife called him a crumb for not being on top of things like that only made him feel all the worse. And he would think how nice it must be for people so much better than he. To know the happiness of anticipation for holiday celebrations and birthdays, and once again be included in those things.

But this is only for the good people, he thought.
Why would you hate yourself? When others hate you , you should love yourself even more! Alot of people don't understand the secret of self love. Take it one day at a time start evaluating who deserves to be in u your life and cut off all the toxic people that steal your energy.
@RadiantRuby I guess because of how my family treats me. Mum stole money off me and I cut contact with her. I just want her to apologise for it, but she's too stubborn to ever admit she was wrong. I feel like my family doesn't treat me like I'm one of them. I'm just an outsider they call up when they need money for a lawyer
