Today is a special day worthy of celebration--because you are a special person worthy of celebration, and it is your birthday.  You in all the universe are a unique product of unique experience that have shaped a unique and compelling perspective. You merit interest and attention; you merit praise.  Your presence in this shared reality makes that reality a better place.  For that, and your brave and generous sharing of the products of your experiences and creativity, I pause to note that I rejoice in you, and wish you a truly HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

May that which uplifts and awes and wisdom surround and enrich you every day of the year.  May you laugh as often as you learn, may you know love and give love, may you see beauty and know it beautiful, may you dance instead of sigh, laugh instead of weep, and see the wonder of creation swirling always around you.  Might joyous memories and happy encounters leave you with a smile the normal wear and tear of life can never banish for long.  May you relish and surpass every new challenge, and seek adventure bravely.  Have the happiest of birthdays!  

Thanks for watching.

Happy birthday!

That you exist, create, live, and ponder works of such beauty are all superb and telling reasons to rejoice.  That you have the courage to risk thoughtless, cruel and even vicious remarks in return are reasons to respect you. That you use your own priceless perspective to produce marvels uniquely yours is a reason to regard you with gratitude and awe.  That you have mastered the requisite techniques of art and technology to transmit the results of your thought and patient labor are causes and solid grounds for praise. Taken all together, they combine into a sound and complete justification for an earnest, merry, and utterly sincere tendering of the best of all wishes for you to have THE HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS!
