#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.

#3 Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain 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.

#6 The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.

#7 Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, friends, 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, to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.

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

Thanks to George Carlin
