On Strawberry Fields
Forever.
Happy Birthday, Ringo Starr, who (when asked in an interview last week how it felt to turn seventy) described himself as a twenty-four year-old at heart. And so it goes with birthdays-another year older on the outside but ageless on the inside. How to negotiate this discrepancy, that widens with time until it feels irreparable? With songs about skies filled with blackbirds and diamonds while (as Ringo recommends) taking one birthday at a time. Enjoy!
