Birthdays, if we are lucky, we get to celebrate our birthdays and theirs With friends, in person by phone or even skype, we joke ,kid, share stories and in so many ways try to let each other feel how grateful we are to have them in our lives, as time goes by, we consider our friends a constant , a part of who we are, and then one day,, this day,When they have left this world, we have to celebrate their Birthday without them, we are left alone with only their memory, left to remember all they meant to us, our hearts hurt , not only for ourselves but for their families and other friends, So today with tears in my eyes, I celebrate the Birthday of my Friend,, remembering better times , his smile,his laugh and his perfect hair, and so much more, I always gave him a badtime for being 13 days younger , “Kids today” Miss ya Bud.. Happy Birthday Bernie
