Just turned 75 today and realized while reflecting on this that I have more birthdays behind me than in front of me.
 
When I mention that people always tell me that I should feel good about having reached a milestone. And every year is another milestone. When people claim that getting old beats the alternative, I sometimes wonder.
 
I was stationed in Iceland when I turned 25. Everyone made a point out of reminding me I was a quarter of a century, 2 and a half decades. Made me feel like a really old man. Now 3/4 of a century doesn;t sound near as old as that did

Most people that say that are still relatively young..

Happy birthday. I hope what's in front of you is as good or better than what has come so far.
