What do you do when your Forty?

January 8, 2024 10:36am CST
It's been Thirty minutes since my Birthday today . I'm supposed to go sleep early and go to church tomorrow but I don't see the schedule so i will just visit and pray. But last week Saturday my middle brother suprised me with a birthday cake and they greeted me with a song. Honestly, it was akward because i didn't expect anything. I still can't believe that it's been eighteen years since my graduation. Didn't think i would end up like this. They often says life begins at 40. What is that supposed to mean? Have a nice day

Happy Birthday! I like the idea of the four stages of manhood. You have finished being a pupil and a householder. Now you can look forward to being an ascetic and a hermit.

You’ve got a wisdom at forty you didn’t have eighteen years ago. That’s more valuable than a person might think.

I am not sure what is that supposed to mean. Some people say that life begins after 50.

The question is more what did I do at 40? I hope you have a great birthday! And relax, 40 is nothing. (However, 41 hurt me. )
