 Topic: Seniors - was hard getting this far in life
Posted: 26 Jun 2018 at 1:35pm |
Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility for all we have done and do not try to blame others.HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOT senior citizens who took: The pride out of appearance, The courtesy out of driving, The commitment out of marriage, The responsibility out of parenthood, The togetherness out of the family, The learning out of education, The service out of patriotism, The Golden Rule from rulers, The nativity scene out of cities, The civility out of behavior, The refinement out of language, The dedication out of employment, The prudence out of spending, The ambition out of achievement or God out of government and school. And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and tolerance from personal relationships and interactions with others ! And, we DO understand the meaning of patriotism, and remember those who have fought and died for our country. Just look at the Seniors with tears in their eyes and pride in their hearts, as they stand at attention with their hand over their hearts, as the American Flag passes by in a parade ! YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN ! I'm the life of the party . . . Even if it lasts until 8 p.m. I'm very good at opening childproof caps . .With a hammer. I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up. I'm smiling all the time, because I can't hear a thing you're saying. I'm sure everything I can't find is in a safe secure place, somewhere. I'm wrinkled, saggy, lumpy, and that's just my left leg. I'm beginning to realize that aging is not for wimps. Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and I think I am having the time of my life! Now if I could only remember who sent this to me, I wouldn't send it back to them. Or, maybe I should send it to all my friends anyway. They won't remember, even if they did send it. MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA AND MAY AMERICA CONTINUE TO THANK GOD !

Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do? You stop drinking and get off the carousel.

One of our premier members, he has undoubtedly given us more information,,,,,, and points to ponder,,,,,,, than anyone,,,,, all while retaining a gentlemanly approach without favoritism or critiquing persons and making them feel less than themselves!!!!!
In other words, a person to admire and emulate.............

I had an annual physical done a month ago and yesterday I get a $120 bill from the doctor so I call to see why, the gal says Medicare is no longer paying for the annual physicals. That will go over quite well I`m sure. Probably another one of these Trump hating very unhappy dip-chit liberal turds in charge of Medicare.
