Getting older

Since I got 1 year older and wiser yesterday, I thought I would share these wonderful words from a very wise 90 year old!!!
This is something we should all read at least once a week!




1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick.
Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch..

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree
to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than
crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with
God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up
the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no
idea
what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you
shouldn't
be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But
don't worry; God never blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful
or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make
you stronger.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But
the second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after
what you love in life,
don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the
fancy lingerie.
Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is
special.


22. Over prepare,
then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to
wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words
'In
five years, will this matter?'

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of
your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else
does.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of
anything you did or didn't do.

35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of
it now.

36. Growing old
beats the alternative -- dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

a gift."
