READ! Very Important
Here a very important tip! If you wanna stay happy and survive in
the future endeavours. This article is very much useful to those
who'll immigrate to a new country like Canada.
ATTITUDE
The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully
dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionably
coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally
blind, moved to a nursing home today.
Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move
necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the
nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As
she manoeuvred her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual
description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had
been hung on her window. "I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm
of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new
puppy. "Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room ... just wait." "That
doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is
something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not
doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged...it's how I arrange
my mind. I already decided to love it ..
"It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a
choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have
with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and
be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as
my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories
I've stored away ..just for this time in my life. Old age is like a
bank account ..you withdraw from what you've put in .. So, my advice
to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of
memories Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am
still depositing.
Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.
FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company that we are
working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the
family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their
lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work
than into our own family, an unwise investment indeed, don't you
think?
Last Tip: "Swallow your ego for a while if you wanna survive in
Canada"
