Joy begins at 40! Happy Birthday!I'm not 40 I'm 18 with 22 years experience.

We’ve all heard people say things like “I’m 39 and holding” or “this is the second anniversary of my 39th birthday.” For some reason, there is a negative stigma surrounding the “Big 4-0h.” Actually, for most people, crossing that dreaded milestone marks the beginning of a great new chapter in their lives. Gone are the insecurities of the 20’s, the relentless ambition of the 30’s, and what is left is assuredness. At the age of forty, we have gained knowledge about the world but, perhaps more importantly, we know ourselves and feel comfortable in our own skin. So if a friend or loved one is coming up on this milestone, let them know the horizon is bright. Use these examples to make sure they know you are there to help them celebrate the great life ahead!
