Respect for someone I like tomorrow had a birthday, in my blog post this time will discuss the history of birthday celebrations. Check it.
Birthday or Milad (in Arabic) was first begun in Europe. Starting with the fear of evil spirits that will come on when someone's birthday, to take care of things that are evil, friends and family are invited to come when someone's birthday to give a prayer and hope is good for a birthday.
Giving a gift is also believed to provide a sense of joy for many years so people can ward off evil spirits.

Celebrating birthdays is a long history. Antiquity people do not know exactly the day they were born, since that time they use a turnover time of the month and season. In line with the human civilization, the calendar was created. The calendar allows humans to remember and celebrate the important things every year, and birthdays are one of them.

Many of the symbols that are associated or connected with the anniversary since hundreds of years ago. There is little explanation of why the birthday celebration should use Diana cake. Artemis One story says that, because the Greeks first time using a cake for an offering to the temple of the goddess of the moon, Artemis. They use a round cake that represents the full moon. Another story about a birthday cake which originated in Germany called "Geburtstagorten" is one type of birthday cake which is used at birthdays. This cake is a cake with multiple layers that taste sweeter than the cake made from bread.

Another symbol that always accompanies a birthday cake is the use of birthday candles on a cake. Greeks offered cakes to the goddess Artemis they also put out the candles on it because it makes the cake look bright moon lights up a case (Gibbons, 1986). The German experts known as the man who makes candles and also began to make small candles for their cakes. Some people say that candles were placed on the grounds of religion / religious. Some Germans put a large candle in the center of their cake to mark the "brightness of Life" (Corwin, 1986). Others believe that the smoke from the candle of hope will carry them to heaven.

Today many people say the only hope in my heart as she blew out the candle. They believe that blew all the candles in one puff will bring good fortune. Birthday party is usually held so that people can blow out birthday candles.
There is also a myth that when we take the words at the top of the cake, those words would become reality. So by eating the "Happy Birthday" will bring happiness.
