How To Stay Young ...
 

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

Keep only cheerful friends. 
The grouches pull you down. 
If you really need a grouch, 
there are probably a few dozen of your relatives 
to do the job. 

Keep learning.
Learn more about the computer, 
crafts, gardening, whatever. 
Just never let the brain become idle. 

Laugh often, long and loud. 
Laugh until you gasp for breath. 
Laugh so much that you can be tracked in the store 
by your distinctive laughter. 

Do not worry about situations beyond your control. 
Karma is karma.
What shall be will be. 

The tears happen. 
Endure, grieve, and move on. 
The only people who are with us our entire life, 
is ourselves. 

Surround yourself with what you love, 
whether it is family, pets, keepsakes, 
music, plants, hobbies, whatever. 
Your home is your refuge. 

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. 

Don't take guilt trips. 
Go to the mall, the next county, 
or a foreign country, 
but not guilt. 

Tell the people you love, 
that you love them, 
at every opportunity.

Remember, 
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, 
but by the moments that take our breath away.
