card excerpt
I received my annual Christmas letter from my great Aunt - she's 85 and until the last two years was healthy and going strong like someone half her age. I loved this little paragraph ... says a lot about her and her attitude.
"I have managed to stay clear of the hospital; however I have been CT'd, XRAY'd, echo'd, pacemaker'd, bone density'd, extract'd and crown'd, but I don't feel a bit like royalty. Given that: I'm older, slower and have more wrinkles -- but they don't hurt." I can only hope to live a healthy long life like my Aunt and her sister. They are 85 and 90 and going strong! I firmly believe it's because of their positive attitudes about life. You rarely hear a negative thing out of them.
