ü Throw out all nonessential numbers from your life. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.
ü Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
ü Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever, even ham radio. Never let the brain idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the devil’s family name is Alzheimer's.
ü Enjoy the simple things.
ü Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
ü The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us in our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
ü Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
ü 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.
ü 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.
ü Tell the people that you love them, at every opportunity.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
