I am a survivor and 56 now

Today is my 56th birthday. I never refuse to admit my age. Every birthday is a milestone for me because I have survived another year living with anxiety and depression and I am proud of that. I share this not to get birthday wishes but to remind everyone that while we have good days and bad days we are all strong. We are all survivors. Please celebrate yourself today. That is my birthday wish.

Hi. I also turned 56 about 1.5 weeks ago and basically was ok with it until a so-called friend lambasted me via a text because she couldn't post on my FB page which I have not used in about six months. At first her text hurt then I found it a little funny. First, she is 56 also and were not in high school anymore. Why not call and say H.B. and I tried posting, etc..... but criticizing me. I apologize for the slight rant. We are survivors and also need to choose who should be in our lives for support and positivity. Happy birthday to you and I hope you have a wonderful day. Heres to us!! 🌻 🎂 🌻
