How to Stay Young (Quoted)

Stay Young! My Friend !




We all need to read this one

over and over until it becomes

part of who we are!




HOW TO STAY YOUNG?







1. Keep only cheerful friends.


The grouches pull you down.
(Keep this in mind if you are
one of those grouches!)










2. 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!






3. Enjoy the simple things.






4. 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.










5. 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.






6. Surround yourself

with what you love:


Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes,

music, plants, hobbies, whatever.


Your home is your refuge.






7. 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.






8. 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.






9. Tell the people you love

that you love them,

at every opportunity.










10. Forgive now those who

hurt you. You might not

get a second chance.






Remember!

Lost time can never be found.


Be kinder than necessary,

for everyone you meet is

fighting some kind of battle.
