Had the privilege to meet a spry 92 yr old gentleman yesterday who shared with me a lot of good stuff. Some keys he shared to why hes lived so long. #1 Have a good belly laugh every day its the best medicine #2 do everything you can to eliminate strife & anger in your life. He said I call it the ABCs of life A is when the problem or situations in life come eventually youll get to C which is the solution but what you do with the B makes all the difference. Are you gonna respond with anger & let strife get you all knotted up or with joy & be loose & free to get through it. He said its not an easy thing but can be done if you work it through! #3 Live to serve somebody Im 92 & my joy is being my wifes caregiver & serving her :) He also told me about how his army friends would always try & get him to smoke & would make fun of him cuz he didnt. So he tried it for a week by himself at his home & said he didnt feel any better or cooler so he decided that hed pretend like he was still smoking but put that money hed spend on cigarettes in a savings. He said after 22 yrs you wanna see what I bought with my smoking money? He took me to his garage & showed me his Originall 57 Chevy it was a beauty! He said imagine if you did that today lol! You can learn a lot from your elders if you take the time to listen :)
