HOW TO STAY YOUNG

I received this from my friend Gini and thought it worthy of passing along:

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

 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.
 
 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.
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; 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.

Absolutely my philosophy on life! I'm busy all the time but I keep my pleasures simple, live simply and simply live n' love. Any negative crap I vent off here or with friends that razz me til I'm laughing (or drunk)......

They are simply stated.
It was one reason why I posted them.

This is quite a remarkable way to vent isn't it?
AND friends are even more value in good and bad times.
