Before 31 Years Old
Every day is always about gratitude, and getting used to journaling in the morning, or early morning will help us be calmer. Do you believe in that? It feels like we are pouring out all our hearts, but by writing, and with something that will not be able to speak to leak important secrets to others.
After being grateful, it is also important for us, especially women, to look deeper into ourselves, what things make us who we are, not changing just because of the demands of other people's desires.
So, before I turn 31 next week, I enjoy my last days as 30. I want to make sure that I don't change.
There is nothing to change, even though I already have a husband. In fact, there are many women out there who are unlucky for themselves and actually feel unhappy with their marriage and I am very sad about that. Whatever, as women, we need to set boundaries to keep us appreciated, especially in a marriage relationship.
I am very lucky to have a husband who always maintains boundaries about me remaining myself, even though I am already a wife. My husband also really appreciates me for always helping with anything about our house, he is even never ashamed to sweep the house and wash the dishes (those are things that are very unusual for husbands in Indonesia because of the cultural factor that has been rooted in society that cleaning the house is only a woman's job).
Before I turned 31, I celebrated it with a movie date. My husband took a nice and artistic picture of me. My husband said, I look like a child in the photo. lol. "Let's still feel young!"
There are many things that have not been achieved in my life, and I think 31 years will be terrible if I always compare my life to other people's lives. So, instead of having a terrible life, I choose to be grateful and enjoy what God has given me.
I have lost both of my parents, then God brought a husband who takes such good care of me. I lost my fetus, but God made me realize that health is the most important thing and now I live healthier.
Every sadness brings us to another moment to be grateful for, and every age that will pass brings us to a wiser moment to face a life that will not last forever.
We do not live forever, so why be sad as if sadness is long-lasting?
Before I turned 31, I just wanted to make sure that I was me, and I didn't care what other people said about me. People have the right to make perceptions about me, but I also have the right not to care, and to continue living, slow living is my choice now. And, working in silence.
Best Regards,

Your celebration is new to me. It seems your having a bridal shower. Gonna try it too soon.😄
Happy early 31st birthday my friend, may the new year be filled with more great moments with joy and lots of self discovery for you. Enjoy yourself and have much fun.
Gratitude is something that we have to practice daily, being grateful for life makes us happy people
It is very important to be yourself without taking into account what other people may think.
What a great quote dear friend @anggreklestari I hope you enjoy it a lot
yes, grateful is a must. Have a great day
Hello friend, happy and sweet 31st birthday in advance, you are absolutely right I think it is very important to thank God, our creator or the universe for everything when we wake up, I do not write it but it is my habit to do it.
I am 54 years old and I tell you that the most beautiful thing in life is to live every moment, to feel good about ourselves regardless of others, there will always be those who judge us but that should not matter.
We should surround ourselves with good company because the moment is now as we are passing through this life and we don't know if it will be long or short.
Your husband is right you look like a little girl in that picture, you look very pretty.
I hope you enjoy mcho the real day of your birthday, hugs from this other side of the world Venezuela.

Hi lady @anggreklestari
You are a blessed person, you have a very considerate husband
What a beautiful way to say goodbye to your 30s
Have a beautiful day
According to a popular saying, every day is a gift. That's why we call it the present. It's depressing to live in the past and anxious to worry about the future. Yet, we can always be optimistic about what's coming. Thus, enjoy your current moments as we look forward to a special milestone of your life: your natal day. Have fun @anggreklestari! ☺️
Juma is my latest gift from God! Juma just stop by at my house in the late night! He said hello to you, Erne 😊
I am so optimistic with the future. How about you? I am sure life will be unexpected but fun.
Self awareness is one thing that many people go long years without and I'm glad you have that at your finger tips. Being aware and happy in our skin especially as a woman is something to be really grateful about.
I hope you enjoyed your movie date and..Happy birthday in advcance:)
Happy early 31st birthday !
Nice place to celebrate your 31st birthday. You look very elegant and very pretty.I wish you many congratulations enjoy it to the fullest. 🎂🎁😀🥰
Gratitude is all we need in our everyday life because life is so much of a struggle. But with gratitude 🙏, cherishing all we have achieved even though there are more left, we will be happier with life.
Happy 31st birthday celebration 🎉 in advance dear @anggreklestari. May your days be filled with good health and more happier feelings 😇 not thinking of what others thinks because opinion is so cheap.
Enjoy your weekend
Happy Birthday in advance. Going to the movies is something I use to do all the time, I have to say I miss the experience. Best to live life in the moment and get the most out of it rather than look ahead and think we need to change something simply because we age 😁
yeah, I don't know why, when we go to cinema, just feeling like always young ehehe
It's true, I feel the same way. For me it's because it was much part of my dating experience. I was quite a bit younger, hehe.
Happy Birthday in advance.... enjoy this week , the whole year like this....i really like when you said you don't want to change....
And here I am trying to change myself every day 😅
I like your attitude very much and I am glad that you have someone by your side who cares for you a lot. It is unfortunate to see how some women let men crush and enslave them as if they have no value, and it is engraved in their DNA that they have to serve them at all times.
We will remain young, no matter the age, because we have the souls of children. 😉
Happy Birthday to come @anggreklestari! Time does slip quickly away, which is why we need to make the most of each day that we have. Have a wonderful week and take care!
Thank you so much, dear. Take care :)
🤗💜🌻 You as well!
Happy Birthday, sis...
Thanks sis ❤️
