May Six, Nineteen Sixty Five

Born on May 6, 1965 I turn 42 today. In my 42 years on the Planet, my single largest achievement is being a Dad to two fantastic kids. While it’s difficult splitting their time between their mother and myself, ensuring that I’m around for them, support them, cheer them on and love them unconditionally is my present legacy to my time on Earth. Perhaps another legacy will evolve during my next 42 years, but if not, I’ll be happy to leave this life knowing my children were cared for with all of me.

Lucikly, I share my birthday with some pretty awesome people. Here’s a short list of celebrities also born on May 6, along with some of their most famous quotes.

From error to error one discovers the entire truth.

Who wants to brave those bronze beauties; Lying in the sun; With their long soft hair falling; Flying as they run; Oh they smile so shy; And they flirt so well; And they lay you down so fast; Till you look straight up and say; Oh lord; Am I really here at last
-- Bob Seger

When you're young you believe it when people tell you how good you are. And that's the danger, you inhale. Everyone will tell you you're a genius, which you are not, and if you understand that, you win.
-- George Clooney
