Please refrain from giving B'Day Bumps

For all of us, birthdays are a time for celebrations, parties and bonhomie. There's cake to go around and we all love receiving gifts from our friends and family on our special day.

But something rather disturbing has come to my notice in the past few months.
Tis was a rare scenario years earlier ... but now the same seems to be a norm !!!

A very hurtful and potential dangerous way to wish someone - with birthday bumps.
When giving someone a birthday bump, you are targeting one of the most sensitive parts - the Back.

Birthday Bumps - Witnessed anywhere always brings back one particular college memory of mine.

There was a colleague of mine in college who stood witness to one of such events at his 20 th Birthday in College. It was his last birthday on his legs - Standing .....

He has been bed ridden now ... for almost 3 years .....
Courtesy : One Hard Blow at his back during one of the Birthday bumps ceremony and he is paralyzed in the lower part of his body for the rest of his life probably ( May God forbid)

So My Frnds ...... Before you raise your leg to hit someone, remember that even a little margin of error can cause a lot of damage to the spinal cord. One wrong blow on a sensitive spot could prove to be fatal for the recipient. So next time you're tempted to use this method of wishing, it's time to pause and think again.

Folks, why hurt someone on their special day?
I'd like to request all of you to be a little more considerate and celebrate this happy occasion without causing anyone any harm. Let's make it a great day for our frnds - one they'll remember for the right reasons.

Let's celebrate birthdays with cakes, gifts and by spreading the good cheer!

Please pass this to all ur frnds..............
