We all need to read this one over and over until it becomes part of who we are ! � HOW TO STAY YOUNG 1.� Try everything twice. On one woman's tombstone she said she wanted this epitaph: "Tried everything twice.loved it both times!" 2.� Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. (Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches!) � 3. Keep learning:� Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever.� Never let the brain get idle.��'An idle mind is the�devil's workshop.'�� And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!� � � 4. Enjoy the simple things. 5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.� And if you have a friend who makes you laugh,� spend lots and lots of time with HIM/HER. 6. The tears happen:� Endure, grieve, and move on.� �The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves.� LIVE while you are alive.� � 7. Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever.� Your home is your refuge.� � 8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it.� If it is unstable, improve it.� If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.9. Don't take guilt trips.�� �Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county,� to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is. 10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.� � I love you, my special friend. 11. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a�second chance.And if you don't send this to at least 4 people - who cares?� But do share this with someone.� � Remember! Lost time can never be found.Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.� Have a great dayMyrna
Hi Myrna,
Thanks my Friend. Definitely words to live by, especially #5. Laughter is like God's medicine. Regardless of how low you may feel, a good dose of laughter will always make the day brighter.
Have A Beautiful Evening,
Phil
