So i was thinking of sending this text to her for her birthday.  Do all you all think it is too much.  I wanted it to be sincere, but not suggestive or anything.  Just sincere from a friend to another friend.  Thanks for your input.

“Every once in a while a beautiful soul comes into this world.  Sometimes that soul is pushed, beaten down, and challenged over and over again. But because that soul is so beautiful, strong, and rare. It emerges above all odds and rises higher than any other. Shining bright and wonderful for the world to see.
47 years ago, one of those souls was born into this world. Yours!  You are an amazing, strong, and beautiful woman. I’ve always been impressed and in awe of how you rise above like you do. And how no matter what is thrown your way, you still have love and compassion for those in your life and those that aren’t as well. I will always be very grateful that I got to share part of your life with you and be influenced by such a beautiful person.
I hope this day is great and you celebrate yourself all that you’ve accomplished.  You deserve the best that life can offer.
Take care of yourself.
Happy birthday”
