Hamlin, who has made severalpublicappearances since the terrifying episode in January, described his feelings toward celebrating another birthday as he thanked his supporters in an Instagram post.
“Life is a precious gift. It’s a blessing to see another birthday,” wrote Hamlin alongside a number of personal pictures, including snaps with rappers Jay-Z and Quavo.
“I can’t begin to explain the feelings… & even if I could, you probably still wouldn’t know the half... But ima enjoy this one a lil extra today! I know my purpose of why I’m here & I’m aligned, focused & only answering to my higher calling. Thank-You To All For Every B-Day Wish!” he continued.
