Beach Bum/ Growing Old
Thom, a couple of days ago you gave us this quote:
"The grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love and something to hope for." -Joseph Addison (1672 -1719) Sums up a great deal of wisdom IMHO. Here are some quotes you might like: "Beware of the young doctor and the old barber." Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790) "To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am." Bernard M. Baruch (1870 - 1965) "Sure I'm for helping the elderly. I'm going to be old myself some day." Lillian Carter, in her 80s "Age is not a particularly interesting subject. Anyone can get old. All you have to do is live long enough." Groucho Marx (1890 - 1977) I like the dog lighthouse pic, those guys have it made.

Doug,
Here is another Quote; --------------------------------------------- No problem lasts forever. No matter how permanently fixed in the center of our lives it may seem, whatever we experience in this ever-changing life is sure to pass. Even pain." ----------------------------------------------- Old Age isn't that bad; Just different. With time you make the necessary adjustments. It's the "TIME" part that's beginning to be the problem http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage |
