35th Birthday Queen

Posted on December 8, 2020

Share

So, its official, I am 35 years old. Never imagined I’d be celebrating a pandemic birthday and I’m not complaining because I’ve been greatly blessed. On January 2020 I had big plans for my 35th birthday. I originally thought I’d be doing something big to celebrate but as the official day came closer, I never made any set plans. Honestly, I truly am at a different stage in my life and I’m more than happy to just wake up in the morning, take a deep breath and be grateful that I’m still here.

Entonces, es oficial, tengo 35 años. Nunca imaginé que estaría celebrando un cumpleaños pandémico y no me quejo porque he sido muy bendecida. En enero de 2020 tenía grandes planes para mí cumpleaños 35. Originalmente pensé que haría algo grande para celebrar, pero a medida que se acercaba el día oficial, nunca hice ningún plan establecido. Realmente estoy en una etapa diferente de mi vida y estoy más que feliz de despertarme por la mañana, respirar profundamente y agradecer estar viva.

In our worldwide reality lots of people are celebrating birthdays alone, canceling their weddings, finding themselves without work, others are working more than ever without access to childcare. Some are giving birth alone without their partners in the room. All while many people are suffering, grieving, and dying alone. Everyone is navigating great challenges that are much more important than having a huge birthday party. Honestly, I’m beyond grateful and happy that God blessed me with being able to spend my birthday with my sister whom with all the risks traveled to Puerto Rico. That alone is my biggest birthday gift and celebration.

En nuestra realidad mundial, muchas personas están celebrando cumpleaños solas, cancelando sus bodas, encontrándose sin trabajo, otros están trabajando más que nunca, sin acceso a cuido de niños. Algunas están dando a luz solas sin sus parejas en la habitación. Todo mientras muchas personas están sufriendo, afligidas y muriendo solas/os. Todo el mundo está afrontando grandes desafíos que son mucho más importantes que tener una gran fiesta de cumpleaños. Honestamente, estoy más que agradecido y feliz de que Dios me haya bendecido con poder pasar mi cumpleaños con mi hermana, quien con todos los riesgos viajó a Puerto Rico. Solo eso es mi mayor regalo y celebración de cumpleaños.

Now more than ever, I know that life is a gift and nothing else matters except embracing peace, hope and love. I feel as if my year of being 34 during a pandemic changed me more than ever. This past year has without a doubt been challenging, but it has taught me many lessons I urgently needed to know. All the minimal things that worried me are insignificant. I’ve grown so much as a person, becoming more confident, stronger and resilient. Most importantly, I learned to embrace and love everything about myself. I’m welcoming 35 as a very empowered woman.

Ahora más que nunca, sé que la vida es un regalo y nada más importa excepto abrazar la paz, la esperanza y el amor. Siento como si mi año de 34 años durante una pandemia me hubiera cambiado más que nunca. Este año pasado sin duda ha sido un desafío, pero me ha enseñado muchas lecciones que necesitaba saber con urgencia. Todas las cosas mínimas que me preocupaban son insignificantes. He crecido mucho como persona, me he vuelto más seguro, más fuerte y resiliente. Lo más importante es que aprendí a aceptar y amar todo sobre mí. Le doy la bienvenida a 35 como una mujer muy empoderada.

This year to celebrate my 35th birthday I’m honored to partner with Forever Crystals to present their December Birthstone Collection. Forever Crystals specializes in creating unique jewelry with Swarovski crystals. I’m a fan of Forever Crystals because they embody elegance, femininity and beauty. Just by wearing one of their unique pieces you will feel empowered. Besides being absolutely beautiful the December Birthstone Collection has a special meaning as does every birthstone. The December birthstone represents tranquility, and we all know that with everything lived this past year I definitely need lots of it.

I have no idea what the future as a 35 year old has for me especially with all the surprises 2020 has brought. You may have many plans for your life but then unexpected situations come that interrupt your plans. No matter how difficult things may seem I have high expectations for this new year of life. I’m not losing hope, not giving up and I will maintain positive. I know God has great plans for my life. I’m grateful to celebrate another birthday. I’m going to life my 35th year of life to the fullest.

No tengo tengo idea de lo que me depara el futuro a los 35 años, especialmente con todas las sorpresas que ha traído 2020. Puede que tengas muchos planes para tu vida pero luego surgen situaciones inesperadas que interrumpen tus planes. No importa lo difíciles que puedan parecer las cosas, tengo expectativas grandes para este nuevo año de vida. No pierdo la esperanza, no me rindo y me mantendré positiva. Sé que Dios tiene grandes planes para mi vida. Estoy agradecida de celebrar otro cumpleaños. Voy a vivir mis 35 años de vida al máximo.

Be you, Be Lovely
