Another Birthday Around the Corner

Another Birthday Around the Corner...

Is it possible another year has gone by? Yes. Insert deep breath here.

Regardless of age, life is what you make of it. Whether we turn 18, 28, or 38, if you are happy in your life, age need not apply. Life does have twists and turns - for better, for worse - and you wonder what will be at the end of the rollercoaster ride. Fair enough.

I once read, "Once you accept that life is difficult, life isn't as difficult anymore." Think about that for a moment.

So if you are celebrating the month of the Gemini with me or if your birthday isn't for another six months, this is my philosophy: Be grateful of your "new age" because next year you will be faced with this same situation again (yet another year older) wishing you could come back to this very point in time. Take a moment to breathe in the fresh air, feel the sun against your skin, and thank the Lord for the blessings He has given to you - and the ones He has not.
