IT GETS BETTER WITH AGE
I've
learned that our dog doesn't want to eat my broccoli
either. - Age
7
I've
learned that just when I get my room the way I like it,
Mom makes
me clean it up again. - Age 12 I've
learned that if you want to cheer yourself up, you should
try cheering
someone else up. - Age 14 I've
learned that silent company is often more healing than
words of
advice. - Age 24 I've
learned that if someone says something unkind about me, I
can live
so that no one will believe it. - Age 30 I've
learned that there are lots of people who love you dearly
but they
just don't know how to show it. - Age 42 I've
learned that you can make someone's day by simply sending
them a
little note. - Age 44 I've
learned that the greater a person's sense of guilt, the
greater
his or her need to cast blame on others. - Age 46 I've
learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems
today,
life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. - Age 48 I've
learned that keeping a vegetable garden is worth a
medicine cabinet
full of pills. - Age 52 I've
learned that making a living is not the same thing as
making a life.
- Age 58 I've
learned that if you want to do something positive for your
children,
work to improve your marriage. - Age 61 I've
learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. -
Age 62 I've
learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catchers
mitt
on both hands. You need to be able to throw something
back. - Age
64 I've
learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you.
But if
you focus on your family, the needs of others, your work,
meeting
new people, and doing the very best you can, happiness
will find
you. - Age 65 I've
learned that whenever I decide something with kindness, I
usually
make the right decision. - Age 72 I've
learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be
one. - Age
82 I've
learned that every day you should reach out and touch
someone. People
love that human touch-holding hands, a warm hug, or just a
friendly
pat on the back. - Age 90 I've
learned that I still have a lot to learn. -
