This is AWESOME....something we should all remember..�
A 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o ' clock, shaved�perfectly with his hair fashionably combed and even though he is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today.�
His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After�many hours of waiting
patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, he smiled�sweetly when told his room was ready.�
As he maneuvered his walker to the elevator, I provided a visual�of his tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on his window.�
'I love it,' he stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just�been presented with a new puppy.�
Mr. Jones, you haven't seen the room; ' Just wait. ' That doesn"t ' have anything to do with it,' he replied.�
Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is�arranged ... it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it�� 'It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up.
�
�I have a choice; �
I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the�parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful�for the ones that do.�
Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open, I' ll focus on the�new�day and all the happy memories I've stored away. Just for this time in my life.�
Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw from what you've put in.�
So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank�account of memories!�
Thank you for your part in filling my Memory Bank. I am still depositing.�
�
Remember the five simple rules to be happy:�
1. Free your heart from hatred.�
2. Free your mind from worries.�
3. Live simply.�
4.. Give more.�
5. Expect less.�
Pass this message to 7 people except me.. You will receive a miracle tomorrow.�
Now, STOP! Did you hear what I just said. You WILL receive a miracle�Tomorrow. So send it right now!�
Have a nice day, unless you already have other plans.
