leap year

i am turning 28 this year and based on my computation, today is the 8th leap year since i was born.

in one of the weekday masses that i have attended in HP Chapel this month, the priest mentioned in his homily that February is month of "kulang-kulang". almost everyone (if not all) born on February have "saltik", "sumpong", etc. but GOD is really, really good as the priest emphasized, HE was able to balance it by making February as the LOVE month - whatever the "kulang" or how deep the "kulang" is - LOVE can fulfill all that is missing and needed.

Few notes from Wikipedia:

- A leap year is a year containing one additional day in order to keep the calendar year synchronized with the astronomical year.

- February 29 is a date that usually occurs every four years, and is called leap day.

- In leap years, it is the only month that ends on the same weekday it begins.

- Having only 28 days in common years, it is the only month of the year that can pass without a single full moon.
