AS WE GROW OLDER & WISER

 

PHILOSOPHY   Golden Rule Society…

 

As we grow older, and hence wiser, we slowly realize:

 

  • Whether we wear a $300 or $30 watch — they both tell the same time.
  • Whether we carry a $300 or $30 wallet/handbag — the amount of money inside is the same.
  • Whether we drink a bottle of $300 or $30 or $3 wine — the hangover is the same.
  • Whether the house we live in is 300 or 3,000 or 30,000 sq. ft. — the loneliness is the same.
  • And we realize our true inner happiness does not come from the world’s material things.
  • Whether we fly first or economy class, if the plane goes down — we go down with it.
  • Whether we fly first or economy class, if the plane reaches its destination — everyone gets there at the same time.
  • We should realize that when we have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, with whom we can chat,                             laugh, talk, sing, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth — that is true happiness.

 

Six Undeniable Facts of Life :

 

  1. Don’t educate your children to be rich . . but to be happy, so when they grow up they will know the value of things . . not the price.
  1. Best wise words : ” Eat your food as your medicines. Otherwise you have to eat medicines as your food.”
  1. The one who loves you will never leave you because, even if there are 100 reasons to give up, he or she will find one reason to hold on.
  1. There is a big difference between a human being and being human. Only a few folks really understand that.
  1. You are loved when you are born. You will be loved when you die. In between, you have to manage.
  1. If you just want to walk fast, walk alone. But, if you want to walk far . . walk together.

 

And  finally:

The nicest place to be is in loved ones’ fond thoughts.

  • The safest place to be is in your friends prayers, and
  • The most important place to be, of your own free will … is in God’s hands with Christ Jesus who died for your sins and mine.
