I am 53, close enough to 54. At work, I feel my age. I have little tolerance anymore for "playing the game". But, when I am on my bike, I feel very much ALIVE !!!! I can't explain it, the worries, the stresses are generally replaced with the knowledge that I am "accomplishing" something for ME....Birthdays, well, these days I always get to celebrate my birthday with my best friend, my twin sister and that involves a road trip to Montana
