I'm no less worthy of opportunities than I was before my birthday several
weeks ago, and if the (fill in the blank) people who set these stupid age
limits won't give me a chance, I'll just have to make my own opportunities.

You got it, Baby! That's my song, as well, and I'm several decades older than
you! :) Life is always about making our own opportunities. The sooner we
realize that nothing is going to be handed to us on a silver platter, the
sooner we can get about the business of doing what we came here to do in the
first place! Upward and onward!!!
