How To Stay Young

My good friend Rell sent this to me. Thanks Rell, this brightened my day!!

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This also 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.
(keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches;)

3. Keep learning:
Learn more about computers, crafts, gardening,
whatever...never let the brain get 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!
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh,
spend lots and lots of time with them.

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

And if you don't send this to at least four people - who cares?
But do share this with someone.

"Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none." - William Shakespeare
