How To Stay Young
Vintage Dilbert
February 15, 1995
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.’
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 (and GOD). 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 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.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER…
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Do nonessential numbers include high stakes test results? Um….I think, YES!

I agree on this: Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. ‘An idle mind is the devil’s workshop.’ Life is about learning. When we stop learning, we stop living. 🙂

Wise advice! Thank you, Kenny. The second suggestion makes me think: Don’t just keep cheerful friends; be one.

I remember this from a long time ago, but it’s nice to think of it again. I’m staying 40. My first-born son is now older than I am. For that matter, so is my second. Well, I’ll leave that medical mystery for those with nothing else to do.
