First of two installments taken from a Christmas gift booklet titled "Live and Learn and Pass It On - Volume 2" by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.:
I've learned.....
....that old age is not a defeat,
but a victory;
not a punishment,
but a privilege.
(age 79)
....that life is like a 10-speed bicycle.
Most of us have gears we have never used.
(age 59)
....good or bad,
most things don't last very long.
(age 32)
....I should never have taught my
four-year-old sister how to
load and shoot by BB gun.
(age 12)
....that the easiest way to find happiness
is to quit complaining.
(age 19)
....life with my husband's faults
is hands down better
than life without my husband.
(age 49)
