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.

Class never runs scared. It is sure footed and confident and it can handle whatever comes along.
Class has a sense of humour. It knows a good laugh is the best lubricant for oiling the machinery of human relations.
Class never makes excuses. It takes its lumps and learns from past mistakes.
Class knows good manners are nothing more than a series of petty sacrifices.
Class bespeaks an aristocracy unrelated to ancestors or money. A blue blood can be totally without class while the son o f a Welsh miner may ooze class from every pore.
Class can "walk with kings and keep its virtue and talk with crowds and keep the common touch."
Everyone is comfortable with the person who has class because he is comfortable with himself.
~Ann Landers

I just want a woman who can sit me down, shut me up, tell me ten things I don't already know, and make me laugh. And if you can do that, I will follow you on bloody stumps through the snow. I will do your windows. I will care about your feelings. Just have something there. ~ Henry Rollins

I was in no position to laugh or roll my eyes. The dementia of a drug addict had its poetic quality. The mania of hope and longing was heightened. It was the same psychosis I was under, I suppose, the need to change, the self-hatred. ~ Michael Collins (from "Emerald Underground")
