    Happy Birthday, great list, all true think my fave is #8. Your 40s will be much better than your 30s even if your 30s were great.

    Happy Birthday :-) and great things you have learnt also...time does bring wisdom for sure lol!

    Just as an add on what I learned by age 50 is just plain and simple

    "treat others as you would want to be treated yourself"
    "unless you have walked your life in my shoes, then, please don`t criticise my choices"
    and my favorite one is
    "footsteps on the sands of time were not made by standing still"

    Looking forward to your post at 50!!!

    Happy Birthday, from one 40 year old to another! This is the age of atonement for me. Every day that I'm alive is another day to be grateful and become a better me.

    Thank you so much for this post - really is right on the mark!
