Age is a high price to pay for maturity.
As we get older, three things happen.
The first is our memory goes, and we can’t remember the other two.
I remember it like it was yesterday,
but I don’t really remember yesterday all that well.
When
I put something in a safe place so I don't lose it,
then freakin' forget where that safe place is
?
I got it all together. But I forgot where I put it.
I do not have alzheimer's. I have " SOME - TIMERS "
sometimes I remember and sometimes I don't.
Some days I amaze myself.
I look for my phone while I’m talking on it.
Sometimes I try to get out of the car with my seat belt on.
Wonder Moments
Wonder where I parked the car ?
Wonder where I left my mobile phone ?
Wonder where my glasses are ?
Wonder what day it is ?
Age is an issue of mind over matter.
If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.
Senior Moments
Can get away with pretty much
anything.
Wake up tired and go to bed wide awake.
Rolling out of bed in
the morning is easy;
Getting up off the floor is another story.
We enter the world with nothing, and
we leave the world with nothing.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late
! To know how to grow old is the master work of
wisdom, and
one of the most difficult chapters in the great
art of living.
My body knows how old I am, but my mind refuses to believe it.
We'll learn, as
we get older, that rules are made to be broken. Be bold enough to live life on
our terms. Sometimes it's the journey that teaches us a lot about our destination,
about growing and changing. Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us. Sometimes
we will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory. Be Grateful for every second of every day that you get to spend with the people you love. Life is so very precious. Never give up on the people you love. You may be their only hope.
Life is a journey that has a lot of different paths, but any path
we choose use it as our destiny. We experience the world around us, understand its complexities, learn from our mistakes, improve beyond recognition, grow in real terms, help others to have better lives, value lives around us, and have great respect for moral worthiness. Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
Learn as if you were to live forever. Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.
Life is like an ice-cream. Enjoy it before it melts. Dance before the music is over. Live before your life is over. The art of living well and the art of dying well are one. Be humble and never think that you are better than anyone else. For dust you are, and unto dust you shall return. At the end of the day, whether or not those people are comfortable with how you're living your life doesn't matter. What matters is whether you're comfortable with it. Dead people receive more flowers than living ones, because regret is stronger than gratitude. There are more sincere kisses at the airport than wedding halls; and the walls of hospitals have heard more prayers than the walls of a church.
Life is precious, and when you've lost a lot of people, you realize each day is a gift. Don't take life for granted. In the blink of an eye, everything can change. So forgive often and love with all your heart. You may never know when you may not have that chance again. Be grateful for life. Not everyone made it this far. If we never experience the chill of a dark winter, it is very unlikely that we will ever cherish the warmth of a bright summers day. If you aren't grateful for what you already have, what makes you think you would be happy with more. Be grateful for what you already have while you pursue your goals. The truly rich are those who enjoy what they have.
Don't worry about getting old, worry about thinking old. Nothing feels better than the privilege of
being alive. What a precious privilege it is to be alive - to
breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
