Birthdays seem to come quicker and quicker the older you get. Every time it’s your birthday again it seems like you just had one the other day. Unfortunately this is just the way it is.

As we get older time gets more and more scarce. I can remember being a child a having it seem like it took forever for anything to happen. It would seem like a school year took an eternity to go by. Now it seems like in a mere blink of an eye an entire year has gone by.

As kids it seemed like it was an awfully long time between birthdays. Sometimes even feeling like a cruel joke. We wanted so bad to become one year older and enjoy all of the new benefits and freedoms that it brought that it seemed like time just stood still.

As adults we are the exact opposite of that child eagerly awaiting their upcoming birthday. Now we want to totally forget that birthdays even exist. It seems like we will do absolutely anything in our power to delay this aging process. It doesn’t matter how hard we try though. Those birthdays just keep coming and coming with no mercy.

An obvious fact is that with the exclusion of children, most people aren’t too fond of the whole birthday deal. It’s kind of a shame. One way to get around these birthday blahs’ is to have a memorable birthday that is a little different in a way. If this can be done maybe more people can start enjoying their birthdays again.

A surprise party is always a fun idea. The guest of honor will definitely feel special about the fact that his/her friends care enough to make the occasion. The event doesn’t have to be anything particularly fancy either. Just the fact that friends and loved ones are there is enough.

Even having a few friends of the birthday boy of girl meet for a surprise lunch is a great idea. In fact this could be a much more memorable occasion than a full blown expensive party.

The main thing to remember is that the guest of honor feels special and is comfortable. After all its their birthday.
