HOWEVER, upon
reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOTsenior
citizens who took:
The melody out of
music,
The
pride out of
appearance,
The
courtesy out of
driving,
The
romance out of
love,
The
commitment out of
marriage,
The
responsibility out
of parenthood,
The
togetherness out of the
family,
The
learning out of
education,
The Golden
Rule from
rulers,
The
nativity scene out of
cities,
The
civility out of
behavior,
The refinement out
of language,
The
dedication out of
employment,
The
prudence out of
spending,
The
ambition out of achievement
or
God out of government and
school.
And
we certainly are NOT the ones
who eliminated
patience and tolerance
from Personal relationships and interactions with Others!
And,
we DO
understand the meaning of Patriotism, and remember those who
have fought
and died for our country.
YES,
I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!
I'm
the life of the party.....Even if it lasts until 8 p.m.
I'm
very good at opening childproof caps.....With a hammer.
I'm
awake many hours before
My body allows me to get up.
 I'm
smiling all the time,
Because I can't hear a thing you're
saying.
I'm
sure everything I can't find is
In a safe secure place,
somewhere.
I'm
wrinkled, saggy, lumpy,
And that's just my left leg.
I'm
beginning to realize that aging is not for
wimps.
Yes,
I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and I think I am having the time of my life!
Now
if I could only remember who sent this to me, I wouldn't send it
back to them.
Or, maybe I should send it to all my friends
anyway.
They won't remember, even if they did send it.
Spread
the laughter Share the cheer
Let's be
happy
While
we're here.
