there’s something about april
the light, the air, the way mornings start to feel softer against my skin
i don’t know if it’s the spring itself or just everything that seems to come with it
but i always loved this month more than the others
maybe because it’s the month i was born
maybe because it always feels like something new is about to begin
or maybe it’s just that strange tenderness april brings — like a secret you keep close to your chest
my birthday is coming soon
and while i’m not the kind of girl who needs balloons and loud toasts
there’s something about this date that always makes me pause
this year feels especially tender
i’m in the middle of a lot — plans, changes, all those little grown-up things that come with moving and shifting life around
and while i usually know how i want to celebrate, this time i don’t have a clear plan
just a feeling
and maybe that’s enough
and maybe that’s why i’m writing all of this here
because sometimes, just saying “april feels like a lot” makes it all a little softer
and i’m curious —
how do you feel about april?
do you like your birthday, or does it make you weird too?
what kind of celebration would feel perfect for you — if no one was watching?
