I know that I'm getting old when friends, Family and loved ones in dreams are,
upon waking in the morning, I sadly realize that all have been dead for years.

It increases my desire to make new friends, help when needed, and, if nothing else,
make a small contribution to society in some way.
{realizing that life is finite....how do you spend yours?}

I'm growing old and I hope that y'all grow old with me....after all, what's the alternative?


My Best Wishes.

I intend to live until I die, that is actively. Vegetating has no place in my life.
One of my favorite quotes is from a James Dean movie. "Dream as if you will live forever. Live as if you will die today."

It's even worse when everything hurts and you are still in bed. Frank

I GOD ! Now that hit right to home .

When you find yourself musing that, "If I knew half as much as I know now, when I was half as old as I am now....."

Then it dawns upon you that time is a finite, precious, commodity all of us have.
Time spent crying over spilt milk in the past is time wasted doing something
positive to look back upon in your second 50 years!

And that's a story directly from Lincoln, before the war, when we often met and exchanged ideas and pleasantries....

ummm did I say "Lincoln?"

Never mind. I'm NOT that old!

You're probably gettin' old when heated discussions erupt among friends
as to the benefits of certain arthritis medications.

Or when you are threatened with a cane thrashing, (due to amourous endeavors that some may view as illicit)
and are concerned that your walker,
with split tennis balls on the front two legs (for feints to the left or right)
can whisk you away safely in time.

Worse situation; arguments arise due to misinterpretations of the conversation because of
cheap hearing aids and/or dead batteries.

Does anyone else hear that damn high-pitched sound?
Almost sounds like my metal detector giving a signal, but, I ain't out searchin'.....

Best,
Scott

PS. In all seriousness, I STRONGLY encourage everyone to do everything possible
to preserve and strengthen their health.

Yearly physicals are just a part of the game-plan for longevity.

Along with a healthy diet, drinking in moderation, ()
avoiding jealous husbands, and adequate amounts of rest,
one may live a long and happy life.

For us guys, prostrate exams, colonoscopy tests,
and for the gals, regular breast exams (mammogrophies) and pap smears can catch the nasty "big 'C'"
and provide treatment that may give you many more years with your loved ones.

And with us here, your Friends, at Treasurenet!

PSS. I hear my Friends, whisper behind my back, "That Boy just ain't right." "Maybe he's getting senile..."

What do they mean? Anyone? Some kinda "newspeak" the kids have now-a-days?

Aw, hell, everybody, GET OFF OF MY LAWN! I'll call the police, dammit!

Anyone want a juicebox? I have grape and fruit punch.....

I totally agree with you about health care . Had 2 colon cancer surgeries in August and a follow up biopsy last week . They got it all and no need for further treatment except follow up in 9 months . I'll pass on the juice box . I got a can of barley pop .

Health is important as one grows older.

There is not just the physical health of aging, but I feel excited in my educational studies that the more important aspect of aging is the mental health of an individual.

I have found that through personal research and life experiences that "a healthy mind is a healthy body."

I am constantly working word and number puzzles every day, attending college courses and feel compelled to report that the activities described lead to wonderment and awe of life, inquisitiveness, and, ergo, perpetual youth. Voile!

Maybe it all boils down to why Grandma loves Bingo....

Barley pop, heh, heh....

I call it "wobbly pop."
