In honor of all the birthdays we have been having

Longevity

The secret is not a calm disposition
or inner strength
Or following the advice of your physician:
The secret of longevity is length.
Day by day the journey is made.
It's like becoming the Tallest Boy in
The Sixth Grade.
Stick around and you're bound to win it.
And by and by
You'll even be as old as I.

Garrison Keillor
