On Sunday morning, I woke up and remembered it was my mum's birthday.

Normally I would have gone to her bedroom to give her a big hug ,said happy birthday and probably, we would have said our prayers together. But, she was not in town and so I could not do all that and it was too early to call her on the phone. I didn't feel too good about not seeing her but I shrugged off the feeling said my prayers and did a few household chores. Then, being the facebook lover (no, not addict) that I am, I logged into my dear fb!

I posted on my profile "Happy birthday mum, i luv u. God bless u!" and minutes later the status comments started to come in, hapi buffday mum, is she around?, wat's mum's number ? awww, i'll call her l8r,etc. All these lifted my mood considerably(thanks guys) until one very annoying one came, Yinka, wat's rong wiv u? must we all kno it's ur mum's birthday? is ur mum on fb?,

Imagine! Why all that beef from my friend? Did i do anything wrong? Can I not wish my mum a happy birthday? Afterall, people send "shout-outs" on radio when the person in question is not even listening. The status update box says "What's on your mind?". Share. I believe my message was ok and even justified compared to my friend whose status currently reads, "i'm in traffic" (who cares?) or somebody's, "i dey sh*t!, (ahn ahn, spare us the disgusting details).

Facebook critics take am easy on me o! I'm not fighting you o.
I'm just thinking.
