Wonder Moments
Wonder where I parked the car ?
Wonder where I left my mobile phone ?
Wonder where my glasses are ?
Wonder what day it is ?

Senior Moments
Can get away with pretty much anything.
Wake up tired and go to
bed wide awake.
Rolling out of bed in the morning is easy;
Getting
up off the floor is another story.

Life does not come
with instructions on how to live.
Growing
old is mandatory, but growing up is optional. As we get
older,
three things
happen. The first is
where our memory goes, and we can't remember the other
two.
The brain is like The Bermuda Triangle... Information goes in, and
then it's’never found again. Age is a high price to pay for
maturity. We forget what we want to remember, and we
remember what we want to forget. If you have dreams to
achieve, you are still young.
Aging is not a loss of youth but a new stage of opportunity and
strength.
My face carries all my memories.
They say that with age comes wisdom. Therefore, I don't have
wrinkles. I have wisdom cracks.
Some days I amaze myself. I do not have Alzheimer.
I have "SOME
TIMERS."
Sometimes I remember, and sometimes I don't. Sometimes
I try to get out of the car with my seat belt on. I look for
my phone while I’m talking on it, standing in the middle of the
room, wondering what I came in here for. I put something in
a safe place so I don't lose it, then freakin' forget where that
safe place is ? I got it all together. But I forgot
where I put it.
The
youth may move and walk faster, but it's the
elders
who know the road. Life is a journey that has a lot of different paths, but any path we choose use it as our destiny. We experience the world around us, understand its complexities, learn from our mistakes, improve beyond recognition, grow in real terms, help others to have better lives, value lives around us, and have great respect for moral worthiness. Live as if we were to die tomorrow. Learn as if we were to live forever.
Life is like ice cream. Enjoy it before it melts.
Dance before the music is over; live before your life is over.
The
art of living well and the art of dying well are one. At
the end of the day, whether or not those people are comfortable
with how you're living your life doesn't matter. What
matters is whether you're comfortable with it. The silence
of a loved one can be more painful than their absence. Dead people
receive more
flowers
than living ones because regret is stronger than
gratitude.
There are more
sincere kisses
at the airport than wedding halls, and the walls of hospitals have
heard more
prayers than the walls of a church. It takes sadness to know what happiness is, noise to appreciate silence, and absence to value.
Life is precious, and
when you've lost a lot of people, you realize each day is a gift.
Don't take life for granted. In the blink of an eye,
everything can change. So forgive often and love with all
your heart. You may never know when you may not have that
chance again. Be grateful for life. Not everyone made
it this far. If we never experience the chill of a dark
winter, it is very unlikely that we will ever cherish the warmth
of a bright summers day. Be grateful for every second of every day that you get to spend with the people you love. Loneliness doesn't come from being alone. It comes from feeling that nobody cares. Never give up on the people you love. You may be their only hope.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late. Age is just a number. Life is not measured by the number of
breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath
away. At the end of life, age is an issue of mind over matter. If
you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter. What really matters is not what
we bought but what we built; not what we got but what we shared;
not our competence but our character; and not our success but our
significance. Live a life that matters. Life gives meaning to
death; but it could also be said that death gives meaning to life,
just as the silences in music give meaning to the line of sound. We have two lives, and the second begins when we realize we only have one.
We only live once, but if we do it right, once is enough. Don't be afraid your life will end; be afraid that it will never
begin.
Don't
worry about getting old; worry about thinking old. Nothing feels better than the privilege of being alive. What a
precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to
enjoy, to love. You never know how much time you have left.
We enter the world with nothing, and we leave the world with nothing. Our bodies are lent to us by the
Creator, including our hair, teeth, memory, vision, and hearing. We didn't bring anything when we were born, and we had to return it to the Creator when we left. Embrace the impermanence of life and make the most of the time you have. Give every day the chance to become the most beautiful day of your life. Love is the only memory one never loses. Respect the old when you are young. Help the weak when you are strong. Confess your faults when you are wrong. Because one day you will be old, weak, and wrong.
Love what you have now, before life teaches you to love what you lost.
Tears are the silent language of grief. The two hardest things to say in life are hello for the first time and goodbye for the last. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, and
love leaves a memory
no one can steal.

In the blink of an eye, another day is gone.
In the blink of an eye, another week is gone.
In the blink of an eye, another month is gone.
In the blink of an eye, another year is gone.
And in the blink of an eye, I'll be gone too.
And not just me but also you.
We should try to enjoy every moment we can;
it's the wisest thing to do.
