January 20. That's the day. Every four years in the USA it is inauguration day, the day the president is sworn in. And yearly it is my birthday. And on that day please greet me with good morning, good afternoon and good night, congratulate me on making it another year and hopefully another year wiser. But please do not wish me happy birthday.
Six years ago one of the best friends I have ever had in the whole world, Phil Oster, died suddenly on January 20. He left behind his wife and twin daughters who were turning 16 at the time.
Then January 20, 2008 his wife, Julie died after a battle with cancer. Leaving behind twin daughters who are now just 22. Think about that, 22 and no parents to go home to, ever.
So, please do not wish me happy birthday! Ever
