What does it feel like to be turning 60? It doesn’t feel like anything really. Sometimes I feel 19 and other days 65. When I think that we have grandchildren, I feel a proper 60 years old. When I think about my life, with the love of my life, I still feel 19.
What wonder have you done to me?
In binding love you set me free.
These sixty years the wonder prove:
I bring you aged a young man’s love.
“To Tanya on my Sixtieth Birthday” by Wendell Berry
