Did you read yesterday’s post? Those are just a few things I’d like to have told the younger face in the small picture on the small book. The thought then struck me I wonder what I will tell myself when I am 80, which would be 25 years from now.
Projecting ahead here are some things I think I might say:
- Spend more time with your parents
- Save more money
- Enjoy your friends
- Invest often and wisely
- Practice acts of kindness with fanaticism
- Enjoy the ride
- Spend more time with your grandkids and kids
- Be generous in giving away what you’ve learned
- Exercise often
- Do things that you are too old to do
- Silence your fears they are thieves
- Read and paint more.
You may enjoy this little exercise. I think it is important to live your life thoughtfully after all we are warned we will give an accounting of our lives. They belong to Him.
