"I love my nose so much!
Life's Little Truths:
Food For Thought
This surgery completely
turned my life around".
From TK
4 j ust when you thought that you had heard it all —
of waist change places;
• age is a high price
to pay for maturity;
• once over the hill,
you pick up speed;
a el'Aac
!,•2
• by the time you find
greener pastures, you can't
climb the fence.
Let's face it, if you look like
your passport photo, you probably need the trip. Speaking
of the need for a vacation, if it weren't for stress, I'd have no
energy at all.
As we mingle with others, we become attuned to their
foibles. As a result, we note that someone who thinks logi-
cally provides a nice contrast to the real world. And: Blessed
are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never
cease to be amused.
Are you always on the lookout for a bargain? If so, keep
in mind that you should never buy anything that you can't
sell at a garage sale. In the same vein, junk is something you
throw away three weeks before you need it.
Always be willing to listen, but remember that if you are
too open minded, your brains will fall out. Be sure to make
your motto: I don't repeat gossip ... so listen carefully.
Above all, just keep observing and smiling knowingly. E
and not all was that comforting — you may want
to peruse some of the following. They are obser-
vations that friends have sent me from their many Internet
forays. Here is life as we live it, but with a smile thrown in
for good measure.
When you are thinking about doing
something that may have your con-
science sending alert signals, remem-
ber that it is easier to get forgiveness
than permission. You should also
know that conscience is what hurts
when all your other parts feel good.
Also, it is important to note that we
must learn from the mistakes of oth-
ers; we can't live long enough to make
them all ourselves.
Also, experience is a wonderful
thing because it enables us to recog-
nize a mistake when we make it again.
In addition, if you must pick between
two evils, pick the one you never tried before.
As we get older, it is comforting to keep in mind that:
• a balanced diet is a cookie in each hand;
• middle age is when broadness of mind and narrowness
