say no to aging

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worryabout them. That is why you pay them.
2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pullyou down.
3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer,crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brainidle! . " An idle mind is the devil's workshop."And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until yougasp for breath.
6. 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.
7. Surround yourself with what you love, Whetherit's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants,hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserveit. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyondwhat 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 ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths wetake, but by the moments that take our breath away.
And if you don't send this to at least 8 people -who cares?
But do share this with someone.
We all need tolive life to its fullest each day .
