IT'S MY BIRTHDAY

Today on my birthday
consider my luck.
I could have been born
as a pig, cow, or duck.

I could have been born
crying oink, quack, or moo.
I'm lucky I didn't
wind up in the zoo.

So that is that. I'll eat cake and go totally off that diet I have been sticking too for the most part, and feel terrible guilt tomorrow. But not today. Today I am just happy to have made it another year. And if God in his mercy allows me, I will begin that journey of another year. Every year holds good and bad surprises, disapointments, very happy moments, treasured moments, and time....time to spend with those you love. It's a pretty good deal all in all. I look forward to another year.
