Mr. Al Roker, I hope you had an unbelievable 70th birthday, and congratulations. I just saw a YouTube clip of you doing the Broadway show Back to the Future as the principal. You did really good, and I bet you probably want to another part in the future. 🎉

l'd actually, only, start sensing like am leaving when l turn 100 and NOT 70.

70 is just an ordinary age, with a bit of healthy lifestyle, and those who know that start boldly building serious projects such as vying for presidency, starting mega businesses, flying to othet planets etc,
and in fact, they realize that.

70 or 50, 30, 20, 10 ...?

Our days are in the hands of God, our Maker...just move on like nothing is really happening.

Happy Birthday all guys at 70 ❤
