Reply to "Birthday"

cybomanMember

I'm 40. Even though I've put on a few pounds since becoming a stay-at-home-dad 5 years ago, I can still outrun the kids in my neighborhood. I was thrown a suprise party about 2 weeks after my birthday that I had no idea was coming. It was a great experience that relatives I hadn't seen in a long time came out of the woodwork for!

There were no jokes and no depression about it. I'm still on the upswing, and actually feel like I'm just getting started! When I hit 70, I may start to consider that I've aged a bit.

I see 40 as the balance. You're old enough to know better, but still young enough not to care!

Here's an adage just for you:

You don't stop having fun because you get old, you get old because you stop having fun!

Happy 40th Birthday, R.
