I recieved a cute forward from my sweet cousin and wanted to pass along some of it's contents on this subject of ,How to stay young.
- Try everything twice.On a tombstone a woman wanted this epitaph: Tried everything twice...loved it both times !
- Keep only cheerful friends. The grouchy ones pull you down (keep this in mind when you are the one who is a grouch.)
- Keep learning: Learn more about computer,crafts,gardening,whatever. Never let the brain die."An idle mind is the devils workshop." And the devils name is ALZHEIMER"S !
- Enjoy the simple things.
- Laugh often ,long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. And if you have friend who makes you laugh, spend lots of time with that person.
- The tears happen. Endure , grieve, and move on. The only person who is with you your entire life is you. Lost time can never be found . Live while you are alive.
- Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family,pets,keepsakes,whatever. Your home is your refuge.
Loving you all and keeping young ..
Robin

Hi Robin,
Those are great things to remember. I especially like the one that says the devil's name is Alzheimers! :) I think one of the reasons I stay at FP is those little ones keep you on your toes!
Mom,

I want you do come see us soon.
Love,
Lauren
