HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Wow, sixty. Makes me feel old knowing I have a brother who is sixty. Actually, sixty isn’t really that old, I speak from experience, I’ve been there.

But, county line road does seem a long time ago.

A loving family, successful children, happy grandchildren, health, faith and the wisdom of experience far outweigh the occasional (maybe not so occasional) muscle aches and pains that come with aging.

As we get older some of the standard clichés and platitudes about age start to make more sense.

“You are only as old as your feel” and “You can’t turn back the clock, but you can always wind it up again”, start to sound profound.

I found the following quotes that I think reveal some wisdom about getting older

You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair. ~Douglas MacArthur

Men do not quit playing because they grow old; they grow old because they quit playing. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes

“You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old. ~George Burns

Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many. Unknown

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were? ~Satchel Paige

Hope you have a great birthday!!!
