I'm sixty now,
I should be blue, oh yeah...
Another year has slipped away,
And another birthday is here today.
Here I am now, one year older,
But I'm not blue, oh no...,
I feel fine at

Post a Commentgreat attitude! having another birthday means you've lived another year. that's a good thing!
Good thoughts on getting older. It is just a number!
Belated happy birthday!! 60 is just middle age so not to worry! Hope you had a festive and special day (although I imagine you were slinging mail for most of the day!) rcj
Happy Birthday! I'm 65 and still feeling fine.
love it!
Congratulations, Mike! Having passed that milestone two years ago, I can tell we change ever slowly, and getting on in age does not mean we cannot live to enjoy each day, but we need to attune ourselves to every stage of life and be open to accept some changes with grace! We do get more respect and kindness but we have to earn them not through the years in our lives only. As the saying goes; it is not the years in our lives that count, but the life in our years. I live with an attitude that I an getting better with age like wine; but do I have a choice? Wishing you many more fruitful years ahead - siva
You'll live through it. I did, nearly four years ago.

Happy Birthday!
