38, 39, 40

As my last hours of being 38 wane, and on the eve of my 39th birthday where I’ll begin my 40th year on this planet, I want to carry the thoughts in this zefrank video up and over that hill.

(many thanks to James for mentioning this on twitter. Unbeknownst to her, I am taking it as a personal birthday gift.)

    Keep that great attitude. I hit a bigger milestone this year (60) and have to address the fact that my body says I’m aging, but my mind doesn’t. I am trying to refocus my energies on what I CAN do, not what I used to do! Welcome to the best side of life! You know your weaknesses, and have learned how to put them aside as you regroup with a plan using your strenghths. ]

    And KEEP THE KNITTING going! I just attended a memorial service for a family friend who died at 101 8/12. She knit 1,347 cotton dishcloths in her last 50+ years. Just proves that busy hands keep us young!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, new friend!

    Happy birthday my friend!
    May your thirties leave you with great memories and your forties give you great expectations!

    The past is preparation for what is to come. Nothing is wasted. All experience is useful. Take yourself into the future – what a prospect.

    I am still looking forward at 70 (this June), and life is fascinating and wonderful, even when I am anxious and sad (which isn’t often).

    Happy Birthday, and Many Many Happy Returns!!
