Today is My Birthday!

I am 41 years old today -- which is a really weird feeling.

This age was literally unimaginable to me when I was in my teens and twenties and early thirties. Somehow being "this old" was never real to me.

Now I find out that "this old" isn't that old at all. And being an adult is not at all the experience I had expected.

Anyway. . .

In honor of the day, I am soliciting your most wonderful words in Comments today as a birthday gift: witticisms, quotations, wonderful stories, random ponderings, and What You Would Give QoS If You Had A Lamp Genie (gifts, experiences, qualities, blessings, whatever). This will be my "birthday party" this year, so be brilliant! ;-)

(variation on the five-fold kiss)

Blessed be your brain
that you may conceive of your own power.
Blessed be your breast
that you may give sustenance to those you love.
Blessed be your womb
that you may create what you choose to create.
Blessed be your knees
that you may bend so as not to break.
Blessed be your feet
that you may walk in the path of your highest will.
