Since everyone loved the story from Tuesday, I decided to steal another story for today. If you think about ideas and where they come from, my theory is that they come from the ceiling. All ideas are floating, you must have the ability to pull them down and use them to the best of your advantage.

I love pulling ideas down. I hope you love this one.

HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1. Try everything twice.  On one woman’s tombstone she said she wanted this epitaph: Tried everything twice…loved it both times!
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 us our entire life, is ourselves.  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.  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, or a trip to the next county or a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.  I love you, my special friend.

And I would be remiss if I didn’t add to love TNG!

Happy Wednesday!
