Neoxian City: Writing Prompt #16

Hello Hivers,

We are all unique. No two persons are exactly the same. Our characters are influenced not only by our DNA but also our environment. Although unique we have one thing in common - everyone has a birthday.
In some cultures we might celebrate our special day or not. As this is an international platform, it would be interesting to hear about your birthday and learn whether culture plays a role in your celebration.

---

This is a monthly event where a prompt is shared. You can write a story based on the prompt below.

Before you start writing, please read the following Guidelines which can always be found in #city-prompt.
