For as long I can remember I have always had the birthday blues. Mainly because I didn’t feel celebrated as a child, felt forgotten, or had no birthday celebrations at all. But as I walk into one of the most divine years of my life I’ve decided to change the narrative. Why the fuck was I sitting around waiting for someone to celebrate me? Probably because the little 14 year old Christina was really sad. But 33 year old Christina is here to make that little girl feel seen. How will I do that?
By seeing myself.
So shoutout to me, from me.
Happy birthday to an maverick ,genius, warrior, hero, oracle, artist, singer, poet, mother, daughter, sister, marketer, creator, ….. to a resilient Puertorriquena and Black woman who is still here inspite of IT ALL.
