HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1. Throw out non-essential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.
2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
3. 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.
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp 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, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
8. 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.
9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county, or 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 we take, 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 to live life to its fullest each day!! :D

dot-matrix:
In a Brooklyn upscale pet shop Sarah Goldman, an elderly woman burst into
the store.
"I want to buy a canary, but it's got to be a real good singer.
I've got good, hard U.S. cash, but I'm only paying only for a good
singer."
The shop owner began moving a ladder towards a small cage on a shelf about
fifteen feet up, near the ceiling of the store.
"Ma'am, I'm forty years in this business. In that cage is the best singer I've ever had."
"Don't think I'm gonna feel obligated to pay for something I don't wantjust because you're climbing up a ladder like a monkey. I want a canary but it's got to be the best singer." She said
By this point the shop keeper was coming down from the ladder.
"Ma'am, this bird is a veritable feathered Caruso!" Placing the cage on thecounter, the bird burst into melody after melody.
Awed Mrs. Goldman murmured, "This bird is really a good singer." Suddenly in a shrill scream, "Hey, what's with you ? This bird's only got one leg."
The pet store owner was unperturbed,
"Lady what do you want a singer ? ... or a dancer?"
