As you get older, you have to stay positive. For example, just the other day I fell down the stairs..........instead of getting upset, I just thought, "Wow, that's the fastest I've moved in years".

That is funny Ken. I will add on a more serious note concerning attitude that years ago just when it seemed I was getting a bit ahead some emergency would come up + would be pissed + I would have to spend the saved money. Then I readjusted my thinking to that of it's a damn blessing that the money was here when I needed it. Same situation; a different attitude.

Attitude is what it's all about. Not long ago I was cleaning the spa near the pool and got too close to the edge, not realizing that I was that close. I stepped back and fell in and it was COLD! All I could do was laugh at myself as I struggled out cold and wet, and thanking the good Lord that I didn't knock myself out and drown!

Dad: "How'd you do on that history exam, son?"
Son: "I think I failed it, pa."
Dad: "Now be a little more positive about things!"
Son: "Okay, Dad, I'm positive I flunked it!"

As we get older it's not "if" you fall down, it's "when" you fall down.

Not So Much The Fall But How High And What You Land On. Speaking From Life's Lessons.

Let us NEVER forget the get up again part.
