I Can’t Believe I Forgot the Best Quote Ever for a Guy Turning 40

January 14, 2007 at 12:21 pm by Will

I’ve held it all inward, God knows I’ve tried
But it’s an awful awakening in a country boy’s life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the hair on my shoulders, and the age in my eyes.
(from “Amanda” by Waylon Jennings)

    Happy Birthday! Don’t feel bad, I just turned 47 on the 12th. I’ve done more in these last 7 years than I’ve done my whole life! Hope to do twice as much before I’m 50 (then 10 times as much before I’m 60, etc, etc). The body and mind are still willing…I’m hoping both will hold up equally well!

    Hi Susan! Great to hear from you! Hope things are going well down near the gulf! Yah, I’ve been reflecting a lot the last few days, and have realized how in the last 6 years or so my life, and my contentment with life have improved so much. I’m expecting even better things in the future.
