January 20th is my birthday. Approximately: 24,090 sunrises and sunsets, 72,270 meals, 23,265 tooth brushings on my own, unnumbered views, uncountable vistas in the rear view mirror that is my life.
Amazement beyond the beyond that I could be and am here.
Gratefulness and thanks for all things given to me. They are beyond anything that anyone could hope and pray for.
Sadness, tears, anger, questions, loss and and true pain, yes.
Joy, enchantment, delight, laughter and goodness, YES.
THANKS, yes.
I'll never be 66 again. On to being that and in my 67th year.
Best
