I Am Getting Older And Wiser

At fifty I thought "at least I'm not 60," now as I approach this grand age I'm thinking, "what the hell - at least I'm not ... " Life isn't a countdown it's to be enjoyed. At the beginning of last year, I decided to do a few things on my bucket list. I visited Italy, Switzerland, and NYC. I had a fabulous time alone, I also went to Stockholm with friends and enjoyed their company, I have a choice. I am older, I am (I feel) wiser, but I'm not scared of life the way I was when I was much younger. Sometimes you have to punch back and not fear to be alone, doing things you never felt you could do, treasure the lessons you are learning and have fun whenever possible.

I enjoy the grands
I have fewer obligations
Welcome to the new middle age

@Degbeme It's true! Besides, my cake wouldn't take all those candles any more. 😉

@PearlontheShore Ha!! If they tried that with mine. The first one would be burned down by the time they got to the last one. 😬
