Arvin 1: Happy birthday to me!
Arvin 2: How is that possible? Isn't that your birthday is on May 16, and it is not May 16 today, is it?
Arvin 1: Well, this is the day I was baptized when I was a baby.
Arvin 2: Why is that baptism is also your birthday?
Arvin 1: Because, according to Our Lord Jesus Christ, we are born again in baptism.
Arvin 2: Why do we need to be born again?
Arvin 1: Because, God wants us to be His sons and daughters in Christ through the Holy Spirit.
Arvin 2: Why?
Arvin 1: Because, God loves us and the best He can give us is to share in His Divine Life in heaven. We can only share in His Divine Life by knowing Him in Heaven. But, we know according to our nature. So, to know God, we must share in His nature and life .
Arvin 2: Why is it the best?
Arvin 1: Well, is there any better than union with God, Whom is Goodness Himself, He Whom the source of all that is good?
Arvin 2: Nothing.
Arvin 1: Well?
Arvin 2: Happy birthday!
Arvin 1: Glory and thanks be to God!
