Noodle Birthday Thoughts

In a chinese tradition, i guess, you eat noodles on your birthday, till i symbolize long life. I was like a very nice and peaceful time. My reflections on turning 26 became more of thoughts of gratefulness for being able to spend that time alone. The fact that i was able to do it made me like really happy. It kind of reminds me of this concept of like building trust with yourself. A lot of times, if you have like, a new year's resolution that's really hard, and you don't actually end up fulfilling it, then you might tend to lose faith in yourself.
