4. Hey, Rainbow...
I wish I was 40 again!

Life is still all before you, don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

I'm 55, and 40 looks good from this vantage point, but I still feel like a kid.

Happy Happy!

No, 40 is not so bad at all (I say that as I approach 50) - but they say that 50 is the new 30, so you at 40 are a mere child.

15. Hey, 50 is still a youngster, too...
I work on a cardiac/neuro floor and the majority of the patients are 80-90+....anything less than that is still "young" to us!


Thanks for the happy birthday!!!!

10. Happy B'day Rainbow4321!
Nope, the 40s are actually a pretty cool decade to be in. Old enough not to give a damn what people think anymore, and young enough still to enjoy it.
