I celebrate Birthday number sixty-two today. When you consider this I have much to be grateful for. I have lived those 62 years. That breaks down to 744 months… 3,224 weeks… 22,630 days… 543,120 hours… 23,583,200 minutes… Who says life is short?

*Each year that has passed has brought both good and sad.* *The good times as I look back outweigh the bad.* *The joy of living is the secret of living for joy.* *I have a wonderful wife, two girls and a boy.* *Only now they are now full grown with children of their own.* *I find my life has not become empty; I am not left alone.* *I am called by my name or by ‘Dad’ or ‘Papa’ it all depends.* *I find that the joy of living simply never ends.* So I begin year number sixty-three. Whatever it brings, I know God loves me.

Happy Happy Day and Congrats, Lew, and I hope you have many, many more!

Happy Birthday, Lew. I write a poem in honor of my age every late October or early November, each year, as a tribute to myself. I see no reason why we, as writers, cannot honor ourselves, every now and then! This is a very nice reflection of your life and a poem offering hope, too.

I hope you've had a wonderful birthday and best wishes for the year ahead! May your 63rd year be your best one, yet!

The happiest of birthdays!
Ok, who figured out the time statistics?
I like how you choose to "begin year sixty-three. Whatever it brings, I know God loves me." You bring a smile to my lips with your expressiveness and love.
