You don't have to get old

 "You can't help getting older but you don't have to get old."-George Burns

I rather like this quote because I feel like a part of me has always stayed young. I still like cartoons and kids movies, I still find things to wonder at and just as when I was young,  I don't want to stop learning. Wherever you are reading this, I hope you'll always be young at heart. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.

Kittens and puppies can get along

 I know that it's said that dogs and cats don't get along typically but as this video  below shows that puppies and kittens can get along quite well.  Anyway, I post the video here as it made me smile. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.

The name for a fear of long words (and yes there is a word that describes a fear of long words,) is hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia! 

 I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always!

A little bit of vanity

 It's the singer Rod Stewart's birthday and one of the songs he's famous for singing is called Maggie May which I like a lot because it's cheerful and it has my name in the title. For the sake of a small measure of vanity, I share the song here because it makes me happy. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.

Act now

 "Change your life today. Don't gamble on the future, act now, without delay."-Simone de Beauvoir

The nice thing about each day is each day is a chance to change something and to do something that helps you feel good and possibly helps others. Wherever you are reading this, I hope that you change something in your life each day and that the changes you make are for the better (for yourself and/or others.) I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.

There's always something you can do

 "However difficult life may seem, there's always something you can do and succeed at."-Stephen Hawking

I've always liked the idea that there's always  something to be done and something I can do.  Whenever I feel sad I find I do feel better if/when I find something to do and to focus on, especially if the thing I'm doing is something that helps other and something that makes me feel happy. Wherever you're reading this, I hope that you can keep happy by always finding things to do that interest you. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.
