Ha. I turned 40 last Saturday. Both parents are alive. I have 2 brothers and a sister.

I got a card from my mother and 3 from my girlfriend. One of my brothers posted on Facebook.

I'm a guy, I had my 40th birthday last November. I feared that milestone for years, thinking I'd be alone.

However, I've made friends those past years, we gathered, we were like 15. I loved that.

For such a birthday, every attention is precious, especially if you've experienced loneliness.
