5. Why, good morning, starshine.
I hope you had many sweet dreams of birthday goodies and prizes and such.

I dreamed of burning and wailing and death. :(

26. The mother feels the baby kicking.
Long before it's even a baby, she feels it kick, and it reminds her that she's going to be a mother and that she's going to have a child, a girl child that will one day grow into a woman and will one day have children of her own. It stops kicking, and she is born, and she is beautiful, and the world outside is nothing like the womb -- it is harsh, cold, bright; and eventually the baby stops kicking and settles in to its own poor acre amid the crags.

But you never stopped kicking.

Kicking against the doldrums and the pains, the violence that is this life. Kicking against walls built up over the years by yourself or by others. You took up arms against a legion of enemies, and you drank wine from their skulls. You laid down in the lion's den and emerged a bit scratched, but none the worse.

Now you're still kicking, although the walls are softer. You know that our world and our place in it is defined by struggle, and you beat on; but you also know that it's all worth it. That, ultimately, the struggle is what makes you fully human, which is more than can be said for most of your brothers and sisters on this rocky earth. That it is your strength, your perseverance, your unwavering dedication to the things that really matter which make you more than that kicking fetus which was spat out into the light these 38 years ago. And that without this day, I would be a much lesser man than I am.

Just about the rarest gift I can offer anyone is my respect, which is something you've earned in spades. I am ever-impressed by the woman you are, and I am ever-thankful for what you've given me. Thank you for making it possible for us to kick against the walls together; and we'll keep kicking this shit till there's no more left of these fleshy vessels.

Now THAT's living.

Happy birthday. :)
