Is it normal to pursue happiness on your birthday?

Today is my birthday and they were planning to give me crazy medicine on my day of pleasure and contentment. Happiness doesn't automatically happen on birthdays, you have to be serious about being happy. To have pleasure and contentment on my birthday I avoided all things that don't make me happy and pursued only that which I believe in like a stone (amethyst) that brings relief and peace in the midst of emotional trauma, it worked, it calmed me down, not any conventional medicine. And I had a birthday cake, happy birthday, really! Is it normal?
