70

Today I turn 70 years old. How should I feel?

I could be depressed that my best years or behind me.

Nope!

My best years are ahead of me God willing.

I may face health challenges but I already have. May not move as fast I used too. May get tired quicker.

But none of that really matters.

I am still here. With a wonderful wife and daughter, a sweet and smart dog, a goofy amazing grand dog, and good friends.

There are more blessings in my life than I can count.

Today I turn 70 and whatever the future holds I am glad!
