crazy but true
today I turn the big 4 0
I never, EVER thought I'd be this old
have this much
or be happy in any way
As a teen I had so much angst
pain
anger
I have regrets
& I do question why things happen sometimes
as everyone does I guess
but with some personal reflection
I believe I am as happy as I allow myself to be
as happy as I think I deserve
I have never been one to say I will be happy when...
or I can't wait for...
I guess I never believed good things happen for me
although
I know I am lucky in love
I love my family
my mom
my boys
Doug
my life is so full I can barely believe it
it scares me sometimes
looking back I am certainly satisfied with how my last 40 went
& I am looking forward to my next 40
I deserve to be happy
I believe
I am happy :)
I hope you are too
much love V'ness

Vanessa, sending you lots of special birthday wishes from me here in the UK. I am glad my card got there - I did post it at the beginning of December as I wasn't sure how long it would take especially when it might have got clogged up with Christmas post. I hope you have had an extra special day. Best wishes, Kym xxx
Happy Birthday 'Ness! I feel priviledged to have had you as a friend for more than half of your first 40. I'd like to sign on for the next 40+, if you don't mind. ;)
Have a great day.
