Assalamualaikum w.b.t.. Happy Birthday to Me! Few years back, my day would filled with a lots of birthday wishes, presents & birthday cards... Things were different now.. Let say I expect these: 1) My friend SHOULD return favors 2) Other people SHOULD appreciate me 3) my HUSBAND SHOULD buy me Jewellery These expectation may sound reasonable..But often, these things won't happen! So I end up frustrated and dissapointed.. There's a better strategy. I make fewer demand Instead, have preferences! A: A birhday cake, Birthday card, flower &  Jewell B: A whole body massage For things that are beyond my expectation, I tell myself "I would prefer "A" ,,But if I get "B", It's Okay too!"  In this way, I have more piece of mind...I prefer my husband would buy me a birthday cake with presents, but when he's not, it doesn't ruin my day.. I prefer sunshine, but Rain
