Getting Older By George Carlin.
On Aging
(Absolutely Brilliant)
IF YOU DON'T READ THIS TO THE VERY END, YOU HAVE LOST A
DAY IN YOUR LIFE. AND WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED, DO AS I AM DOING AND SEND
IT ON.
George Carlin's Views on Aging;
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old
is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited
about aging that you think in fractions.
How old are you? I'm four
and
a half!
You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on
five! That's the key
You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the
next number, or even a few ahead.
How old are you? I'm
gonna
be
16! You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16! And then
the greatest day of your life . . You
become
21.
Even the words sound like a ceremony . YOU BECOME 21 YESSSS!!!
But then you
turn
30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He
TURNED; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're Just a
sour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed?
You
BECOME
21,
you
TURN
30, then you're
PUSHING
40.
Whoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away. Before you know it, you
REACH
50
and your dreams are gone.
But wait!!!
You
MAKE it to 60. You didn't think you would!
So you
BECOME
21, TURN
30, PUSH
40, REACH
50
and
MAKE
it
to 60.
You've built up so much speed that you
HIT
70! After that it's a day-by-day thing; you HIT Wednesday!
You
get
into
your 80's and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you TURN
4:30 ; you REACH bedtime. And it doesn't end there.
Into
the 90s, you start going backwards; 'I Was
JUST
92.'
Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a
little kid again. 'I'm 100 and a half!'
May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!
HOW TO STAY YOUNG
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
And the
devil's
name is
Alzheimer's.
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. 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.
