As I contemplate my 14 billion years, with their sharp sparkle, muddy quagmires
and the endless synthesis in-between,
I am left with mixed feelings.
They blend and define each other, as feelings do.
I have matured, I think; I have gained insight and ability--
even as I grow more young at heart.
And as I continue to polish the skills and powers that I have attained--
always new vistas of untouched fields appear.
I remain a work in progress.
Well, time to light the candles
and make a wish.
