God's Plan For Aging Gracefully



Most seniors never get enough exercise. In His wisdom, God decreed that seniors become forgetful so they would have to search for their glasses, keys and other things, thus doing more walking. And God looked down and saw that it was good.

Then God saw there was another need. In His wisdom, He made seniors lose coordination so they would drop things, requiring them to bend, reach and stretch And God looked down and saw that it was good.

 Then God considered the function of bladders and decided that seniors would have additional calls of nature, requiring more trips to the bathroom, thus providing more exercise.  God looked down and saw that it was good.

 So if you find as you age that you are getting up and down more, remember that it’s God’s will.  It is all in your best interest, even though you mutter under your breath.


Nine Important Facts To Remember As We Grow Older

 #9  Death is the number 1 killer in the world.

 #8  Life is sexually transmitted.

 #7  Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

#6   Men have 2 motivations: hunger and sex, and they can't tell them apart. If you see an old man with a gleam in his eyes, make him a sandwich.

#5  Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks, months, maybe years unless you give them your email address.

#4  Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the hospital, dying of nothing.

#3  All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

#2  In the 1960's, people took LSD to make the world weird. Now the world is weird, and people take Prozac to make it normal.

#1  Life is like a jar of jalapeno peppers. What you do here, today, may be a burning issue somewhere else, tomorrow. 

Please share this wisdom with others while I go to the bathroom.


Thanks T-Bone

  1. There is a corollary to 6.

    Not everybody ages at the same pace.

    Or they're on vasodilators. So you might want to have a high-spirited, sweet-natured old lady nearby, just in case.

    And, after he's done, make him a sandwich.

  2. Unfortunately, my coordination is scary good so I don't get to bend over too often. My loss.

    Being a lover of all things jalapeno, I can relate to #1

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
