- 40 Feels Better Than 50 -

You soon realize that now
It’s your time to shine
You’ve always been free in your soul
Loving and giving love
You perfect the right balance 
Magical conjunction on the right place
Isen't it funny ?
You will be 40 on your next birthday

Vladislav Raven Date: 2/9/2016 3:51:00 PM 40 feels better than 50 and 70 feels better than 40. The numbers never matter, well to some they do, i can tell you some stories about the way people can act as they reach each each new tenth year of life. As always Anne-Lise, once my funning is over i do understand what your gentle words are saying. Life got so good for me after the age of forty, now each year is a great adventure. I just Love to take one day at a time. I am happy to see each year pass. A seven from me my Friend....Vladislav.
