The company you keep. Or, "they Say Hey it's your birthday."

Once again, as I mark the passing of another year, I am enjoying birthday messages from people near and far, from my oldest (ok, “longest-time”) friends to those newest in my life. Some notes quick and humorous, others more profound and thought-provoking. All joining together for meaningful expression.
Earlier one friend included “enjoy entering your jubilee year.” WOW! Long-reigning queens and societies of note celebrate jubilees. Because they’re OLD. But not me, not yet. Time marches on, and as my dear dad always says, “it’s better than the alternatives.”
Sigmund Freud, Orson Welles, & Willie Mays, among many other figures were born this day. I guess that would put me in very interesting birthday company. For what it’s worth, I’m enjoying yours much more.
Thanks for all the kind wishes. Hope this is a great day, and year, for everyone.
