I turned 30 in Korea a few days ago. It seems like everyone feels more depressed than thankful on their birthdays once they become an adult. We get so focused on losing youth or not accomplishing certain things by a certain age. There is no longer HAPPY; it's just BIRTHDAY now (and often a secret one). What happened to celebrating the fact that you're still alive after so many years? Why do we limit these celebrations to 100 days or the first birthday for Korean babies? I say be thankful every year for how long you've been alive but also for how you're being "recreated" along with the rest of the world. Let's learn to embrace our new age this year and anticipate the eventful years ahead.
