Hey hey y'all... I am 50 today! Where are my presents? πŸ˜ƒI hope y'all are having a fantastic Saturday/weekend/birthday with me!

I can't freakin believe I am half a century old lol, I feel and look about 25, I think. I often tell my wife I have excellent eyesight, and yesterday, for the first time, I amazed her by spotting something in the distance that she could not believe. So, I told her, "you see, I always tell you facts" πŸ˜†πŸ€£

I would like to grow old gracefully without any or many health issues. We are health-conscious and eat healthy foods, and we exercise regularly. In fairly good physical shape!

Thank you in advance for all my birthday wishes, and may your Saturday be filled with love, joy, compassion, kindness, and peace!

Hey Tago,

Thank you so much, appreciated! Strange, you only landed here today but you spotted my week-old article... I also noticed that it is not the first time we communicated.

Good morning Hein,

A very happy belated birthday to you.

I hope that you had a great day.

It appears that you're catching up with me quickly, Hein!

I can't believe where the years go, which is why it's so important to make the most of our time.

I hope you have a great week and enjoyed your birthday celebrations.

All the best.

Roy

Hey Roy,

I hope you are doing well. Thank you very much, it was very small and none of the family members even wished me, let alone attended. It was only the two of us, but she made my day and weekend very special. πŸ˜ƒ

2

Good morning Hein,

All is well, thank you.

I'm glad you had a good birthday, despite some other family members not being there! Sometimes it's good to just keep things simple and small. The most important thing is that he spent the time with your wife, which has to be good.

Have a great day.

Hey Roy,

It has been a hectic week, on my last legs with a deadline for some clients which is tomorrow. It was a series of YouTube videos we have to do for some clients, and also a mini course for another client. Everything went smoothly, but this one last video has a B-roll clip of over 9 minutes, and synchronising the B-roll with the script was a daunting task.

Thank you, yes it was a fantastic weekend! I hope you have had a great weekend and week so far.

Good morning Hein,

It's good that you have work to do, Hein, but it sounds like you are under a bit of pressure. Although, I edit my own videos, like everyone, I'm still learning how to do things, I try and learn new things on a regular basis, when it comes to video editing. But trying to synchronise scripts and what have you, I can imagine it can be quite time-consuming, as you want it to be right for the client. I hope that by now you have completed the task.

Everything is going well, Hein, thank you.

I hope you have a great rest of week.

Roy

The problem is that the B-roll clip of 9 minutes was shorter than my script, so that made it very hard to synchronise it. I think in the end we managed to get it 95% accurate, which isn't too bad.

3

I understand where you're coming from, Hein, sometimes things that seem relatively simple, can be extremely difficult. I'm glad that you were able to reach the mark.

Have a great day.

Roy

Happy 50th Birthday @HeinVeronica πŸŽ‰πŸŽˆπŸŽπŸŽ‚

May your desire to age gracefully come to pass. And indeed may the years ahead be filled with love, joy, compassion, kindness, and peace!

At least, I am happy to share the gift of being a member of this great WA community.

My best wishes to you and your family.

Hey Smart,

Thank you very much!

Happy Birthday,

It is awesome that you are feeling half of your age. I don't feel my age as well. I try to live a healthy lifestyle which isn't as easy as people think. Many of our foods are not as healthy for us as you think, even fresh fruit and veggies are not as healthy as they used to be.

I am happy that you are doing so well at your age.

Hey Jeff,

Thank you and I appreciate your time and effort by popping in here. You are right, we need to be very careful with what we choose to eat. πŸ₯°πŸ™πŸ™ŒπŸŽ‰

Hello,

How are you and the family? I do feel processed foods long-term contribute to our health. I try to eat them in moderation as much as possible.

Its great you are feeling perky at turing 50. Many people become a little depresed when they reach that age.

Jeff

2

Hey Jeff,

No, not at all. I am still in my prime, no use getting depressed over something you can't escape.

1

You sound like a smart lady,

Yeah, many people do have their mid-life crisis around 50 or so. My ex has hers around her 40th birthday. That is when she decided she wanted to test the single life again. For me, I don't see why people think being single is such a great time of life

Jeff

People only seem to be or pretend to be happy being single when they are not able to sustain a healthy relationship and live in denial.

A blessed and happy birthday, Hein! May you have more years to count staying healthy and strong...enjoy your special day!πŸ°πŸ§πŸŽˆπŸŽ‰βœ¨πŸŽΆ

All the best,

Happy Half-Century, Legend!

50 years young and still spotting distant objects like a hawk with a gym membership πŸ˜„ I’m convinced your eyesight is powered by kale and confidence.

You say you feel 25. I say you’ve unlocked the cheat code to aging: healthy food, regular movement, and a sense of humor sharp enough to slice birthday cake.

As for presents… I tried wrapping up admiration, but it kept escaping the box. So here’s a virtual high-five, a poetic wink, and a reminder: you’re not growing old, you’re just collecting wisdom in style.

Enjoy your day, Echo of Youth!

Hey Luc,

Haha, thank you so much. I appreciate this and your kind words more than you know! πŸ₯°πŸ™πŸ™ŒπŸŽ‰

Happy Born-day, there, yes, half a century young. I like that. Age with grace. Blessings!
