“Tip 61:  Embrace the age you are. Live your life and not your age.   People are supposed to age. It’s natural. Don’t be ashamed of nature. You are supposed to look good, not for an age, but for you personally. Don’t give up feeling good about yourself because of a number. Enjoy every year and every number. You are of value, regardless of age. Don’t let age limit or hinder you. You decide what is right for you at every point of your life. Don’t buy into what society says about aging. Age has no limits except in your perceptions. Live a life and not an age!”

“If life becomes one naval lint fuzzball after another, enjoy picking naval lint.   Be open to the changes that life brings. Find a way to make the best life you can for yourself, regardless of the situation. Look to stay healthy and stay positive in your thinking. Focus on the good parts of your life. Be content with finding happiness in everyday events. Add fun and silliness to your life. Whatever you end up doing find the joy in it.”
