All I can say is that I sure am enjoying life a lot more on this half of the century mark...

Funny, but as one ages, they begin to see how cultural differences emerge between the youth and the elders. Who among us didn't at one time or another think our parents just didn't understand and didn't have a clue? I absolutely concur with Ron. At least for me, I really just didn't "get it" until I hit about fifty. The human voyage is a constant learning experience. How could anyone even think that the experience and wisdom acquired over 5 or 6 decades could be somehow inferior to what someone knows or thinks they know at 20 or 30?

Ah, but as the human experience progresses, the sad and dirty trick is that there is ultimately a trade off between acquired knowledge and wisdom, versus physical capability. The joke is on all of us.

Thanks for your kind sentiments.

And that is why they created drugs...

Which may be the reason he is verging on maudlin philosophy.

For heaven's sake...Happy birthday and crack open your favorite beverage and toast the fact that you've lead a meaningful life, kind and caring of others, learning a lot along the way and now it is time to enjoy!

Here's to ya!
