TIME GETS BETTER WITH AGE
Read it through to the end, it gets better as you go!I've learned that I like my teacher because she cries when we
sings "Silent Night".
Age 5I've learned that our dog doesn't want to eat my broccoli
either.
Age 7I've learned that when I wave to people in the country, they
stop what they are doing and wave back.
Age 9I've learned that just when I get my room the way I like it,
Mom makes me clean it up again.
Age 12I've learned that if you want to cheer yourself up, you should
try cheering someone else up.
Age 14I've learned that although it's hard to admit it, I'm secretly
glad my parents are strict with me.
Age 15I've learned that silent company is often more healing than
words of advice.
Age 24I've learned that brushing my child's hair is one of life's
great pleasures.
Age 26I've learned that wherever I go, the world's worst drivers
have followed me there.
Age 29I've learned that if someone says something unkind about me,
I must live so that no one will believe it.
Age 30I've learned that there are people who love you dearly but
just don't know how to show it.
Age 42I've learned that you can make some one's day by simply
sending them a little note.
Age 44I've learned that the greater a person's sense of guilt, the
greater his or her need to cast blame on others.
Age 46I've learned that children and grandparents are natural allies.
Age 47I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems
today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.
Age 48I've learned that singing "Amazing Grace" can lift my spirits
for hours.
Age 49I've learned that motel mattresses are better on the side away
from the phone.
Age 50I've learned that you can tell a lot about a man by the way he
handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and
tangled Christmas tree lights.
Age 51I've learned that keeping a vegetable garden is worth a
medicine cabinet full of pills.
Age 52I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your
parents, you miss them terribly after they die.
Age 53I've learned that making a living is not the same thing as
making a life.
Age 58I've learned that if you want to do something positive for
your children, work to improve your marriage.
Age 61I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
Age 62I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catchers
mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.
Age 64I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you.
But if you focus on your family, the needs of others, your
work, meeting new people, and doing the very best you can,
happiness will find you.
Age 65I've learned that whenever I decide something with kindness,
I usually make the right decision.
Age 66I've learned that everyone can use a prayer.
Age 72I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be
one.
Age 82I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch
someone. People love that human touch-holding hands, a warm
hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
Age 90I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
Age 92I've learned that you should pass this one on to someone you
care about. Sometimes they just need a little something to
make them smile. -
