Without sounding trite, I hope to express that you are exemplary incognito when greatness is worn so casually, so non seriously. The tendency is to forget and to make the mistake that all humans are in a similar way. But that is our delusion and ultimate loss because for all those days we spent living with you, we could have equally been cherishing.

The simple fact that you've cultivated a high level of goodness, the fruits of which are reaped by every one of your friends, family members, and peers, it is a spiritual truth that touches me most, however. That per our free will, we choose and are attracted to the people and relationships who decorate our life.

The triumph, then, it is to realize I was attracted to such a good as soul as you, and that you should have embraced and loved me.

Happy birthday. It was hard not to buy you something though. I'm happy you have the bounty of the world. If you need though, if you were bounty less, you would be no less rich.
