IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN...
You have only two things to worry about.
Whether your are healthy or sick. If you're healthy, you've got nothing to worry about.
But if you're sick, you've got two things to worry about. Whether you'll get better or get worse. If you get better, you've nothing to worry about.
But if you get worse, you've got two things to worry about. Whether you're going to live or whether you're going to die. If you live, you've got not nothing to worry about.
But if you die, you've got two things to worry about. Whether you're going to Heaven or if you're going to Hell. If you're going to Heaven, you've nothing to worry about.
But if you're going to Hell, you've got two things to worry about. Original or Extra Crispy.

I've got my approach prepared for my arrival at the Pearly Gates. I'm going with the pitch that if they can restore an old sinner like me they can put the story on their web site.....you know....like free advertising.

LOL, according to how I've read it, deals aren't made at the Pearly Gates. It's a slam-dunk, either you're in or you're out.

I used to think I liked extra crispy but now I'm not so sure.

LOL, well I suppose it's possible to choose "well-done".

Well I have nothing to worry about and it shows in the fact that in 72 years of age I have no wrinkles in my forehead or around my eyes. I have enjoyed a great life. A life full of laughter and fun in almost every day that I've lived it and I thank the good Lord for every second of it. 😇🙏

@100ford2003 Good for you Steve. While I can't say that I don't have wrinkles, I must say that I have had a very blessed 85 years.

@100ford2003 Steve....re: the no wrinkles....do you wear your eyeglasses while shaving? Seriously though.....I love your attitude/perspective!
Just an aside...women get wrinkles and gray hair....men get rugged, distinguished maturity enhancement features.

Dayum, I finally found my glasses. I can't believe what I'm seeing. this isn't me, at least it's not the me I remember from a couple of days ago 🤣 I've always tried to act more distinguished but my childish attitude won't allow me to do that 👍 okay, I guess it's time for me to go back outside and play in the sandbox with my Tonka trucks.

Hey everyone...Age is Mind over Matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter!
I too, have been blessed beyond any adjectives I could use to declare it. Though my childhood and teen years were a train wreck (not by my doing, I'll point out), but my adult life has been a daily dose of love from my beautiful princess of 51+ years. I had good career and am enjoying an even better retirement.
Throw in our two incredible daughters and two granddaughters, I'd have no right to complain even if I wanted to.
Singer Mac Davis said it best decades ago, "Stop And Smell the Roses". I do every day!

I agree. And for the record, healthy attitudes can contribute to longer and happy lives. It's normal to have a down day or to feel blue once in awhile, but the important thing is to move out of it as quickly as possible.
