Some good words to live by

[cowboydoc]

Be the man you wish you would've been when you are an old man.

 

[OkeeDon]

And until you kick the bucket you're always going to be older than you are now, so it's never too late to start.

I want to be the kind of old lady that all the kids come to see to pick flowers in her yard and eat homemade jelly on homemade bisquits.

That is a good one Cowboy,I will remember that.

My father use to tell me this one:
Try to make as many new friends as you can
And try to keep as many of the olds ones as you can.

One of my favorites is,

"I hope to be as good a person as my dog thinks I am."

 

[knucklehead]

I need more advice like that from you mossy crunchers.

It's easy to let what's going on right now make you forget what's important.

I see grandparents enjoying their grandchildren and I think I'll start with my children, and not wait for them to have babies.

....and here's another one....

"Let the decisions you make today be the choices you can live with tomorrow."

When my arthritus is killing me I remember - Old age is a privelige denied to many...

Doesn't make me feel any better, as I'm only 32... but it's what my dad uses... /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

The motto of my cycling team director is pretty cool -

"I take risks, not to escape life, but to keep life from escaping me"
