Have a party and invite all the people you want to celebrate your existence with and try to enjoy it for once, just this one time. Don’t think about how everyone you invite might be better friends with each other than any of them are with you, and don’t think about how you might end up standing in the corner with nobody to talk to at your own party.

And definitely don’t think about how you have no consistent version of yourself because you can only construct who you are in the context of another person, that you can only be “someone” by being who you think the other person would like to have around, so you are really no one when you are by yourself because you cannot be who you yourself would like to have around, and so there is no you, and instead please just be a normal person, one single normal person, not some Ungraspable Multitude, maybe just this once, on your own birthday, please. But whose birthday did all these people come to celebrate? Each of them came to celebrate a different person. So how can they all be at the same one party? And how can you be all these different people, all at once, all at the same time?
