HOW TO STAY YOUNG (adapted)

HOW TO STAY YOUNG (adapted)

Lesson

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. 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, 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, even to the next country; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.

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


AND ALWAYS REMEMBER
:

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

I Think the best thing to be young is just playing a sport like 30 minutes per day and keep you brain working too, don't use drugs like cigarretes and alcohol, and do that with a lot of friends and family.

for me, to stay young, is to be happy always. even there is problem or not. Just do the good things on earth, be friendly and good to everyone. throw the bad things in our health and the best, always offer our self to god almighty.

why you think are you young or old or what. you live your life as you can make more enjoyable and happy. it seems to be more gud or effective than think about youngness.because your smile your own style your way of living life makes you young .
