Today’s my birthday!
“Some say age ain’t nothing but a number. We say it’s so much more — that each year brings distinct pleasures and grueling challenges, unique thrills and soul-shaking epiphanies, and a fresh chance, always, to wrest more joy from your life.”
Isn’t this a positive — and realistic — way to look at a new year – instead of dreading being another year older?
