The three birthdays I remember most are when I became a teenage, when I turned 16 got my drivers' license and when I became a legal adult at 21.

Now, many years later, I find that i am still excited about the future, wanting to know what is next. Yes, there are challenges and much depends on my good health continuing, but that has always been true.

None of us are as young as once were, but none of us are as old as we hope to be.
