Birthday

Addicted to Curry chapter 44 has a great quote:

Mother: Is it for me? [Getting a bouquet of roses from her child, Rui]
Yui: Yes, do you know what day it is?
Mother: Today is... Ah October, 10th. Yui's birthday.

Mother: Then, why are you giving it to me?
Yui: That's because...

Today is the day Mom gave birth to me.

What a pristine excuse there. Simply, to make my birthday a day to commemorate a day where my mother struggle with death to have me here, breathing alive.

People don't live their lives by theirselves.
