Keep going, even as you age,...... Wisdom worth listening to:


Keep going, even as you age,...... Wisdom worth listening to:
           
Don't worry, while you are alive about others’ criticisms or gloat over their praises;just do what you believe is right.
             
Don't worry about what will happen after you are gone, because when you return to the dust, you will feel nothing about praise or criticism.

Don't worry too much about your children for children will have their own destiny and find their own way. Just help them grow into responsible, caring and productive human beings, but never be their slave.
           
Don't expect too much from your children. Caring children, though caring, could get too busy with their lives to help you and the uncaring children may fight over your assets even when you are still alive, and await your early demise so they can inherit your property.

Your children take for granted that they are rightful heirs to your wealth; but you have no claims to their money.
           
As you grow older, don't trade in your health for wealth any more...
Because your money may not be able to buy your health …..Know when to stop making money and how much is enough (hundred thousand, million, ten million?)
Even if you had a thousand hectares of good farm land, you can only consume one quart of rice daily; Even if you had a thousand mansions, you need only three square meters of space to rest at night. Just ensure you have enough to  live happily.
             
Every family has its own problems. Just do not compare with others for fame and social status and see whose children are doing better, etc. but challenge others for happiness, health and longevity.
             
Dont worry about things that you can't change because worrying doesn't help and it will affect your health.
           
You have to create your own well-being and find your own happiness.
           
Strive to keep yourself in a good mood, think about happy things, do happy things daily and have fun in doing them, then you will pass your time happily every day.
           
One day passes, you will lose one day; One day passes with happiness, and then you gain one day.
           
In good spirit, sickness will cure; in happy spirit, sickness will cure fast; in good and happy spirit, sickness will never come.
           
With good mood, adequate exercise, lots of sun, variety of foods, reasonable amount of vitamin and mineral intake, you will enjoy years of healthy life.
           
Above all, learn to cherish the goodness around ……FAMILY and FRIENDS……..they all make you feel young and "wanted"

  1. These are pearls of wisdom for every age: in childhood just read it; at adulthood try to assimilate; at not so old age, read it and re-read it till it becomes habit so that when you are senior citizen it is part of your character. Character decides your destiny.

  2. If you start worrying about the people in the stands, before too long you are in the Stands with them.WORRYING does not take away tomorrows' TROUBLES, it takes away today's' PEACE.If you are worried about tomorrow, you have a serious need to worry about NOW. Otherwise you are fine.Don't worry about the people who hate you, worry about the ones who pretend to love you ....
