Is 30 just a number?

One month from today I turn the big 3-0!  I don't know what to think, what to feel.  I should be thankful.  I couldn't have imagined being this blessed.  Making it to 30 is an accomplishment.  I have to thank my biggest champion, my Mom.  God has given me more than I could have ever dreamed.  My surgery scars and device implantation just let my body tell a story.  You may not see the device because I keep it hidden.  Maybe I shouldn't.  I don't know.  Baclofen pumps aren't sexy, merely effective.  Maybe effective could become sexy one day?  What has age taught you about yourself and the life you lead?
God Bless!

  3. Happy birthday! Aging has only taught me one thing, that age is just a number! It's our experiences that shape us, not the passing of time. In my opinion anyway. :)

  4. Happy Birthday! Life is grand and you never know what to expect out of it. Keep in mind age is only in your head.

  5. Happy early birthday!

    I finally felt like an adult when I turned 30 - it happened to be the age where I was presented with several life changing events.. a few blessings in disguise and a few dark seasons..

    It taught me, though, that age is a number in some ways, but you also need to seize opportunities when they come your way!

    AS for scars/things we keep hidden - we all have our own crosses to bear.. I can sympathize.. just don't let it define you!

  7. Age is of body not of spirit or mind.

  8. Happy Birthday, and good health. I am 70 next month and I am also thankful that I am still around to tell the story. I nearly died as a small child, and then a broken back in my early 20's nearly put me in a wheel chair. I am one of the lucky ones and am now pretty fit and healthy. Have a great day. Diane

  9. Sexy isn't about the body image...you find that out later in life. Embrace the age you are now....it passes quickly. Each age has something new and wonderful to it. The older you get the more you will understand.
