Reproduction with Beauty

This is a reproduction and it is a beautiful piece.
I agree with all except being FAT.
Practically everything else is what I say and practice.
It is related to  Moment Meditation (MM) and that is all what we all have in common and not taken care of.
If every one enjoys the present moment this world is going to be a wonderful place.
One does not need to be old to practice it.
Unfortunately Wisdom comes too late to enjoy!

I have some proviso's for the elderly, though!
I give the physiological reason afterword.

1. Don't have a big booze, especially one for the door.
2. Don't come out when it is freezing cold outside without adequate warm clothing. Drinking cold beverages is an equivalent scenario.
Staining at stools is one of the bad predicament for the elderly. Which is bit more complex than a cold drink.
3. Don't walk against the breeze.
4. Don't walk up a hill with heavy luggage in both hands.
5. Enjoy your sleep especially the dreams.
6. Don't do vigorous exercise without slow and gradual warm up (this applies to YOUNG too).
 Alcohol causes vasodilatation (that include coronaries too).
When one comes out after the one for the door one is exposed to cold weather which triggers intense vasoconstriction which shoots up the Blood Pressure.
This combination is bad for both heart and brain.
Trigger Heart Attacks and Strokes.
If one is predisposed it will also bring about heart failure and pulmonary oedema which compromise everything that one had enjoyed inside.
 Others also have similar mechanisms except that the exercise can bring about Asthma in the predisposed especially the cold air which start the episode with cough.
Bottom line is keep warm and avoid scenarios of excessive vasodilatation and constriction.
Sorry for the preamble but enjoy what is below which is very beautiful writing.

If you have time read my dreams and their interpretations in this blog and elsewhere.
I have already two volumes in Amazon (both print and digital).
Most of them are futuristic and when one retires, one can be happy that we are leaving this world at relative PEACE.
In future with global warming and food scarcity, would will have a very BIG ROUGH PATCH to which America, India, China, Brazil and more importantly UNO is not ready.
They are putting everything under the carpet and think some of my environmental prediction will never will come.
It is like ostrich hiding his head under sand.
Reproduction
Reproduction with Beauty
As I've aged.
I've  become kinder to myself, and less critical of  myself.  
I've become my own friend. 
 
I  have seen too many dear friends leave this  world, too soon; before they understood the  great freedom that comes with aging. 
 
Whose business is it,  if I choose to read, or play, on the computer,  until 4 AM, or sleep until noon?  
I will  dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of  the 60 &70's, and if I, at the same time,  wish to weep over a lost love, I will.
 
I  will walk the beach, in a swim suit that is  stretched over a bulging body, and will dive  into the waves, with abandon, if I choose to,  despite the pitying glances from the jet  set.
They, too, will get old.
 
 
I  know I am sometimes forgetful. 
But there  again, some of life is just as well forgotten. 
And, I eventually remember the important  things.

Sure, over the years, my heart  has been broken.  
How can your heart not  break, when you lose a loved one, or when a  child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved  pet gets hit by a car?  
But, broken hearts  are what give us strength, and understanding,  and compassion.  
A heart never broken, is  pristine, and sterile, and will never know the  joy of being imperfect.

I am so blessed to  have lived long enough to have my hair turning  grey to have my youthful laughs be forever  etched into deep grooves on my face. 
So  many have never laughed, and so many have died  before their hair could turn silver. 

As you  get older, it is easier to be positive. 
You care  less about what other people think. 
I don't  question myself anymore. 
I've even earned the  right to be wrong. 
  
So, to  answer your question, I like being old.  
It  has set me free.  
I like the person I have  become.  
I am not going to live forever,  but while I am still here, I will not waste time  lamenting what could have been, or worrying  about what will be.  
And I shall eat  dessert every single day (if I feel like  it).
