Milestones . . . what are they?

They’re typically a marker a mile apart.  They help you mark the miles when travelling.  ■  We have what we call “milestones”, that mark times in our lives.  It’s sort of a crazy way of marking birthdays and other events that are, we hope, are significant markers of our time on earth.  (Geeze, now I’m starting to sound philosophical.)  One person’s milestone may well not be another’s.  Actually, I would say it’s not another’s.  We each have our own, personal milestones and they’re as individual  to one as their own fingerprints are to another.  (Did this make any sense?)  ■  At any rate – choose your own milestones – they are yours.
