Just want to say I am a year older today .
I was born in Detroit Michigan, in 1935
My family all passed away in there 70's...........
So why am I still here ??????????
Hello Marlene
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
You are still here because God has numbered our days , and obviously your days are not up yet.
You talk as if you are old!

My husband is only a year younger than you...it is still handsome , he is still active , he still plays Squash three times a week ( when the courts are open) He mows the lawn, he climbs up the fir tree to prune it.
You have allowed you mind to tell you that you are old.
When we "think old" we act old.
Like King David said "
This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad of it."
Hope it is a happy birthday and that they baked you a cake. :)
