Advice to Senior Citizens

Remember, there is nothing more disgusting than a son or daughter-in-law coming up with great ideas to spend their hard earned savings.

It's time for you to enjoy life.

You cared for them for many years, and taught them what you can.
You gave them education, food, shelter and support.
Now it's their responsibility to make their own money.

Do moderate exercise (like walking every day), eat well and sleep plenty.
It's easy to get sick at this age and it becomes harder to stay healthy.
This is why you need to stay fit and be aware of your medical and physical needs.
Stay in touch with your doctor, get medical checkups even when you think you're feeling well.
Please take care of your health.

The key is to enjoy your money with your partner.
One day one of you will miss each other, and money won't bring you any comfort; so, enjoy it together.

You've overcome so much in life. You have good memories and bad memories, but what matters is the present.
Don't let the past train you and don't let the future intimidate you. Must feel good in the present.

You have developed your own sense of what is right for you, so keep it and be proud of yourself. It's part of who you are.

Go online and read what people are saying.
Make sure you have an active email account and try to use some of those social media.
You'll be surprised by the old friends you run into.

Never use the phrase, "In our time." “Your time is now. “As long as you are alive, you are part of the present.”


Do it alone if you feel lonely and really need help or if you really don't want to live alone.

If you don't have one, make new ones.
You can travel, walk, cook, read, dance.
You can adopt a cat, grow a kitchen garden, play cards, checkers, chess, dominoes, golf, etc.

Try to accept situations as they are when you feel you can't do anything about it.

Do not insist on those wounds, but accept them as part of life.

If you have offended someone, apologize to them.
Don't carry negative feelings around.
It only serves to make you sad and destroy you unnecessarily. It doesn't matter who was right.
Someone once said, "Holding a grudge is like eating poison and waiting for the other person to die."
Don't take this poison.
Forgive, forget and move on with your life.

You have managed to live a long life.
Many never make it to this age and some never get to live a fulfilling life like yours.
My dear friends, enjoy a peaceful life at this stage of your life.. Don't stress yourself out ..
Be happy !!
