The Twelve Commandments for Seniors

1. Talk to yourself. Sometimes, you need expert advice.

2. "In Style" are the clothes that still fit.

3. You don't need anger management. You need people to stop ticking you off.

4. Your people skills are just fine. It's your tolerance for idiots that needs work.

5. The biggest lie you tell yourself is, "I don't need to write that down. I'll remember it."

6. "On time" is when you get there.

7. Even duct tape can't fix stupid, but it does muffle the sound.

8. It would be wonderful to put ourselves in the dryer for ten minutes, then come out wrinkle-free and three sizes smaller?

9. Lately, you've noticed people your age are much older than you.

10. Growing old should have taken longer

11. Aging has slowed you down but hasn't shut you up.

12. You still need to learn to act your age; I hope you never will.

...And one more:

"One for the road" means peeing before you leave the house.

Lest We Forget

Being thankful won't hurt.

Lest we forget.

Majority of Life Is Behind Her

"I asked an elderly woman once what it was like to be old and to know that the majority of her life was now behind her.

She told me that she had been the same age her entire life. She said the voice inside of her head had never aged. She has always just been the same girl. Her mother's daughter. She had always wondered when she would grow up and be an old woman.
She said she watched her body age and her faculties dull, but the person she was inside never got tired. She never aged. She never changed.
Remember, our spirits are eternal. Our souls are forever. The next time you encounter an elderly person, look at them and know they are still a child, just as you are still a child, and children will always need love, attention, and purpose."
