I don't worry that much about numbers. This includes age, weight, height. I let the doctors worry about them. That is why I have medical insurance.
Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches in life will always pull you down.
Keep learning. Never let the brain go into idle. The devil's name is Alzheimer's.
Enjoy little things like a blond grand child's smile and a red hammock.
Laugh often. Sometimes laugh so hard milk can squirt out your nose. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
In life tears happen. But you have to endure, grieve, and move on. You have to be alive when you are alive.
Surround yourself with what you love; it may be a black and white hairy dog, or an old pickup. Remember your home is a place of peace.
Don't take guilt trips. Better to go fishing, driving in the hills, walking by the sea shore. Guilt trips is just not where I want to go.
Tell the people you love that you love them every time you see them.
And probably the most important: I may be getting older but I still refuse to grow up, sometimes to the detriment of others around me.
Love you dad
