HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This
includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay 'them'

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.'

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.

6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves.
Be ALIVE 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.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER :
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

We all need to live life to its fullest each day!! Worry about nothing, pray about everything!!!

Thanks, Sue!!

Today, I was feeling overwhelmed, and my husband quoted Winston Churchill to me: When you are going through hell, don't stop. I laughed out loud and felt better!

wise words to live by

[dozer1028]

I was just thinking about how much I don’t want to work tomorrow. And I was wishing I could be in a Botanical garden all day instead of working for the Man. But we have to have to have money and a way to live in this society of ours. So many of us work to live and most of us are a paycheck away from being on the street. We try to fill our life with what makes us happy to forget about the real life. We need to live for today and see the world. Never forget to take time and smell the flowers. Or look at that bird out side the window… I would never want to loose touch of my passion of the outdoors no mater what life throws at me……
