How to Stay Young

Throw out nonessential numbers.  This includes age, weight, and height.  Let the doctor worry about them.  That is why you pay him/her.

Keep only cheerful friends.  The grouches pull you down.

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

Enjoy the simple things.

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

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.

Surround yourself with what you love, whether its 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.  Take a trip to the mall, to the next county, to a foreign country, not NOT to where the guilt is.

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.

~ George Carlin

My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world. ~ Jack Layton

I would like to thank a world that never understood or accepted me, family and friends that never believed in me, and a God with one hell of a sense of humour.  You have all made me what I am today.  Let that weigh heavily on your consciences. ~ David Draiman, lead singer of Disturbed

I'm not built for the schmooze.  I'm not good at small talk.  I've got about one hand of friends and a few acquaintances.  I'm cautious by nature and I don't like bullshit, so that doesn't bode well for being in a band. ~ Larry Mullen Jr

Love your enemies in case your friends turn out to be a bunch of bastards. ~ R. A. Dickson
