I am happy for Tarantino and Les Miserables sound oscars. Everyone else, I can't care less.

February Celebrations

This was a special month for me, my birthday is close to and shortly after the Valentine's day. 
This year, I realized that these two days can be more special when expectation is least. 
I have lost all my hopes or almost all of them by now and don't expect to be happy and loved anymore.
However, those very things tiptoed around the corner this Valentine's day and birthday.
Practicing death to stop the hurting has an upside, life with all its magic can show up.
Happy Birthday...
Happy Valentine's day...
