Age is strictly a case of mind over matter?

Age is strictly a case of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. Jack Benny





When I'm 64


by the Beatles








When I get older losing my hair,


Many years from now.


Will you still be sending me a Valentine


Birthday greetings bottle of wine.





If I'd been out till quarter to three


Would you lock the door.


Will you still need me, will you still feed me,


When I'm sixty-four.





You'll be older too,


And if you say the word,


I could stay with you......











This has been a hard entry for me to write.  Its easy to say that with a good attitude anything is possible. That thinking young will keep you young. I think a good attitude is probably 50%. Staying young or at least feeling young also depend on diet, exercise, family and spiritual habits. I would also submit that a little luck and good genes probably don't hurt. Good vibrations and happy thoughts won't keep strokes or heart attacks from happening. A peaceful home life and strong faith decrease stress that tear on the body.  Healthy eating habits and exercise protect the body against aging. They also contribute to the good attitude so its a win/win.
