HOW TO STAY YOUNG
Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.
(Keep this In mind if you are one of those grouches;)
Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening,
whatever.
Never let the brain get idle.
"An idle mind is the devil's workshop."
And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and Lots of time with HIM/HER.
Endure, grieve, and move on.
The only person who is with you your entire
life, is yourself. LIVE while you are alive.
Your home is your refuge.
If it is good, preserve it.
I f it is unstable, improve it.
If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.

In our fast paced lives we do things to prematurely age ourselfs. With Gibbs back we have a lot more to live for
1. Throw out nonessential 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.
(Keep this In mind if you are one of those grouches;)
3. Keep learning.
Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening,
whatever.
Never let the brain get 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.
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and Lots of time with HIM/HER.
6. The tears happen.
Endure, grieve, and move on.
The only person who is with you your entire
life, is yourself. LIVE 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.
I f 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, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
