My BD is March 2 and I will be 72! WOW 72 I don't feel 72, most times I don't feel old, I try to make the most of each day. I firmly believe we are all pre-destined and when the Good Lord closes the page, its closed.

Life doesn't end at 40 or even 50 adn from what I've seen of my friends who are older than I am, it keeps on going into your 60s, 70s and beyond. I think the key is to really take care of yourself!<br />You are a beautiful, talented, smart YOUNG lady now.

I mean, when I was younger, 40 was OLD, but now that I am up close and personal with it, I realize that my younger self was ignorant and misinformed and 40 is fabulous! You are so much smarter and savvier (sp?) and let's face it, more beautiful as you age. Embrace it! I think you are a really neat woman, whatever your age.
