Is birthday an important day for anyone to give or receive gifts?

From ancient times, birthday for any person had a meaning and purpose. Evil spirits were believed to be vigorous and dangerous on that day for that person. In order to protect the person who becomes a year older on his/her special day , people would come together and celebrate merrily surrounding the person with laughter and joy and this was believed to be the way protection is given from the evil spirits. It is believed that the celebration of a birthday of a person started more than 2000 years ago. Well wishes were the first gifts one was receiving. But over time, the practice changed to giving gifts to someone on his/her day each year.

It is common now in all parts of the world to celebrate birthdays, but the way they are celebrated is different in different parts of the world and is driven by religious and cultural practices. Whatever be the tradition or custom, the intent of celebrating the birthday of a person is the same - good thoughts and well wishing for the upcoming year for the person celebrating.
