mind over math

I recently had a birthday, and some friends were suggesting I am getting old. That’s simply not true. Now, the calendar might suggest I’m getting older, and I am indeed older than I was, but I’m not old. I don’t feel as old as the calendar says. So it’s mind over math. πŸ™‚

Besides, old age is at least 10 years older than I am. It’s a moving target. πŸ™‚

But whatever on the number of my actual age. I like to remind people that studies show that people who have the most birthdays tend to live the longest.

We got a rare snow here in the south recently, and I remembered this quote:

The aging process has you firmly in its grasp if you never get the urge to throw a snowball.

BTW, I threw numerous snowballs, so I’m not old. πŸ™‚

Seriously, though, while that’s a joke, take time to enjoy your life each day. Look around, notice what’s going on around you, pay attention to details you normally overlook, and find enjoyment in the good things in your life. Most people are too busy and stressed to enjoy life, which is sad.

What can you enjoy today that you normally don’t? Even if it’s just a minute or two, that’s a start. Try it…
