Birthday Bliss


I quietly slipped into 51,
a new age,
gently wrapping it around me,
trying it on for size.

It feels comfortable
and even familiar.
I think I am coming
home to myself.

Each and every year takes me
closer to my
authentic being;
the best version
of myself.

Could it be that this
is what they call
bliss?




It's a wrap - for another year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! No matter how many you have they are still special. I hope your day was filled with special moments and spots of happiness to last you another year. You did amazing things when you were 50 - can't wait to see what kind of amazing things await you in your 51st year!

Happy belated Birthday.
I think it's a well kept secret from youth that actually being 50 something is the best time of life!
Enjoy that bliss it just keeps growing.
