*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.* * 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 or her!* * * *6. The tears happen: Endure, grieve and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself. LIVE while you are alive.* * * *7. Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it's family, pets, psakes, 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. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.* *"Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly" - Robert Kennedy Vanakkam Subbu*
