The secret? Remember - we are all put on this earth for a limited time. The first thing we must do is take good care of ourselves. That means: eat healthy foods, take the proper vitamins, exercise and thank God each day we wake up for one more day of life! Ok - I know it's no fun to be alone - I am a widow and miss my husband SO much. But - we have a choice in life - we can just keep feeling sorry for ourselves or we can get up, get dressed and get active. I prefer to be active and as long as God keeps me in good health - that's what I plan on doing. I just got back from my gym workout and I'll be leaving in one hour for my line dancing class. Do NOT stay at home feeling sorry for yourself. At the end of the day - just before I put out my night light and go to sleep - I say my prayers and thank God for all the blessings he has given me. I can see, I can hear, I can move my arms, legs, etc. I have a very nice home, a beautiful flower garden, a car to drive, married children and grand-children and great-grandchildren. My cup runneth over! When I get older and maybe one day will have to use a walker, etc. I want to remember that I used all the gifts that God has given me. I don't want to look back and say to myself "I wish I had done this or done that". I am doing it now!!!
