LIFE

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height.
Let the doctor worry about them. That is why you pay him/her.

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. If you really
need a grouch, there are probably a few dozen of your relatives to do the
job.

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening,
whatever. Just never let the brain idle.

4. Laugh often, long, and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. Laugh so
much that you can be tracked in the store by your distinctive laughter.

5. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is
with us our entire life, is ourselves.

6. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it is family, pets,
keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

7. 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.

8. Don’t take guilt trips. Go to the mall, the next county, a foreign
country, but not guilt.

9. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

Remember, Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by
the moments that take our breath away.

What a darling graphic. Spelling his last name was a job in itself! Very good, tiapam. I did watch the cute wedding too!
What fun!

Here is the post that Tiapam is talking about! It was the best post of the year! (OK - maybe not the year - but it sure was a good one! Especially for the day that Chelsea got married!)

LUV, I knew I had missed a ping from you so I searched back through my pings as I haven’t been ‘on’ much lately.

Love the yo-yo dog and thank you for the ping.
((hugs))
