Throw out nonessential numbers.<\/p>\n<p>This includes age, weight and height.<br \/>\nLet the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.<\/p>\n<p>2. Keep only cheerful friends.<\/p>\n<p>The grouches pull you down. (keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches;)<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"wp-image-1737\" src=\"https:\/\/ultrazaps.com\/terryblogg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cid011401c977c7dollar6cea2010dollar0100007fterry.jpeg\" alt=\"cid:011401c977c7$6cea2010$0100007f@TERRY\" \/><\/p>\n<p>3. Keep learning:<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening,<br \/>\nwhatever. Never let the brain get idle.<br \/>\n&#8220;An idle mind is the devil&#8217;s workshop.&#8221;<br \/>\nAnd the devil&#8217;s name is Alzheimer&#8217;s!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"wp-image-1738\" src=\"https:\/\/ultrazaps.com\/terryblogg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cid011501c977c7dollar6cea2010dollar0100007fterry.jpeg\" alt=\"cid:011501c977c7$6cea2010$0100007f@TERRY\" \/><\/p>\n<p>4. Enjoy the simple things.<\/p>\n<p>5.

The tears happen:<\/p>\n<p>Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>LIVE while you are alive.<\/p>\n<p>7. Surround yourself with what you love:<\/p>\n<p>Whether it&#8217;s family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever.<br \/>\nYour home is your refuge.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"wp-image-1740\" src=\"https:\/\/ultrazaps.com\/terryblogg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cid011701c977c7dollar6cea2010dollar0100007fterry.jpeg\" alt=\"cid:011701c977c7$6cea2010$0100007f@TERRY\" \/><\/p>\n<p>8. Cherish your health:<\/p>\n<p>If it is good, preserve it.<br \/>\nIf it is unstable, improve it.<br \/>\nIf it is beyond what you can improve, get help.<\/p>\n<p>9. Don&#8217;t take guilt trips.<\/p>\n<p>Take a trip to the mall, to a hill station, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"wp-image-1741\" src=\"https:\/\/ultrazaps.com\/terryblogg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cid011801c977c7dollar6cea2010dollar0100007fterry.jpeg\" alt=\"cid:011801c977c7$6cea2010$0100007f@TERRY\" \/><\/p>\n<p>10.
