Born on the 25th of August

cid 275 300x240 Born on the 25th of AugustWhen I was in Elementary, I took so much joy of the fact that I had another classmate celebrating her birthday as mine.  She was a rich girl.  And every year her parents would bring foods (including ice cream and cake) in time for our recess.  So at the end of the day I would wind-up with a birthday treat and my classmates would be too full to even remember asking me for a treat.

Then as I grow old and left my old school (and my rich classmate), I took pride in being born on the same day as Sean Connery.  In my head I thought I was also destined for greatness.  As is written in the stars, Virgo people- like this famous guy, has the character, the looks and the intelligent.  Must be that the person who wrote that was also a Virgo that is why he did not leave any room for imperfection as far as describing what Virgo people would be like.

Then as I grew older, I started to search for more people who were born on the 25th of August.  I thought that if I would know one or two people with the same birthdate as me, it would be easy for us to be comfortable with each other’s company because we were born under the same sign.  Just like how people with the same religion can get along very well.  And as it turned out, my search was not futile.  There was this guy born on the same day.  Accomplished and intelligent, just like what the sign said.  We became more  close when we realized that we share the same birthday.  He became my instant big brother, until now.  Then there was this girl, few years younger than me.  Beautiful and captivating.  She too was born on the same day.

And the list came on and on…..

Supermodel, Claudia Schiffer

Actor, Blair Underwood

Celebrity Cook, Rachel Ray

As for me, who just turned 30 yesterday I have yet to realize my being a true-blue Virgo.  I have yet to prove that I have the character that can make other people’s lives worthwhile…. intelligence, that will allow me to go places…. and beauty, that radiants from my inner self and will reflect to the outside.  Whew!  Now I am feeling the pressure of being a Virgo.
