A year older

Why do we celebrate birthdays?

I mean, when we're young, or even up until you're 21, they're milestones to look forward to. Mostly. I vividly recall that I carefully spent my 21st birthday on duty with an EMS service to avoid being dragged out to get drunk, but that's another story.

Why do we celebrate them after 21 though? What's so special about getting older?
