Life thoughts....

[andiesmama]

I got these in an email from my mom today & had to share with you guys!

GREAT TRUTHS THAT ADULTS HAVE LEARNED:
1) Raising teenagers is like nailing jelly to a tree.
2) Wrinkles don't hurt.
3) Families are like fudge...mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
4) Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
5) Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside.
6) Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fibre, not the toy


GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT GROWING OLD
1) Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.
2) Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
3) When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while you're down
there.
4) You're getting old when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair
that you once got from a roller coaster.
5) It's frustrating when you know all the answers but nobody bothers to ask
you the questions.
6) Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.
7) Wisdom comes with age, but sometimes age comes alone.

yup, there's a bit of truth in #4 & 5 worth learning. Tho, cereal is what they feed 'horses' ain't it, lol
and
as far as the rest, Thank God I've refused taking classes in 'how to grow old': what a decrepidpass-time.
aw
c'mon, assure me my 'Christian'-brothers & sisters have retained capacity for *Godly thoughts*- PLEASE
