1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This<br />includes age, weight and height. Let the<br />doctors worry about them. That is why<br />you pay them.<br /> <br />2. Keep only cheerful friends.<br />The grouches pull you down. (keep this<br />in mind if you are one of those grouches.)<br /> <br />3. Keep learning:<br />Learn more about the computer, crafts,<br />gardening, whatever. Never let the brain<br />get idle. "An idle mind is the devil's<br />workshop." And the devil's name is<br />Alzheimer's!<br /> <br />4. Enjoy the simple things.<br /> <br />5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until<br />you gasp for breath. And if you have a friend<br />who makes you laugh, spend lots and<br />lots of time with HIM/HER.<br /> <br />6. The tears happen:<br />Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person<br />who is with us our entire life, is yourself.<br />LIVE while you are alive.<br /> <br />7. Surround yourself with what you love:<br />Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music,<br />plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your<br />refuge.<br /> <br />8. Cherish your health:<br />If it is good, preserve it.<br />If it is unstable, improve it.<br />If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.<br /> <br />9. Don't take guilt trips.<br />Take a trip to the mall, even to the next<br />county, to a foreign country, but NOT to<br />where the guilt is.<br /> <br />10. Tell the people you love that you love<br />them, at every opportunity.<br />******************************************<br />Happy Easter everyone.
