Re: I have a few thoughts aout birthdays for possible discussion!!

[Guest guest]

Hi Pat,  I enjoyed reading your thoughts about birthdays.  I have a few years

on

you as I will be 64 in July.  I think society has brainwashed women into

thinking that only the young and beautiful are worthwhile.  All you have to do

is see any commercial for beauty products, to come that conclusion.  In

comparison, Rashelle and her products take the whole woman into consideration.

 If I didn't know better I would say I am in my 30's or 40's.  My question is

do

men think differently than women (well I know they do!)  but recently my

brother

had his 60th. birthday.  I found a picture of him when he was in his late teens

when he had long long hair and a mustache. I found a quote I loved.  " How old

would you be if you didn't know how old you are? "   I used this on his card and

he didn't " get it "   Another friend was with us since we were at a restaurant

when I gave him the card.  She understood exactly what the quote meant.  I

didn't think it was so mysterious but my husband asked what it meant too.  Even

after explaining, they still didn't understand and both of these guys are

intelligent.

I  always spent my birthday with my Mom and Dad even after I was married and

the

girls were born.  Joe was working in those days and he came for supper. Since

Mom and Dad are both gone now, I am blest to be able to spend the day with my 94

year old Aunt. 

One benefit of being on a program for our health improvement is that with each

birthday we truly do get better and better, inside and out.  Remember that old

Clairol commercial  " You're not getting older, you're getting better "   We can

be

better and better each day and thoroughly enjoy our blessings.

Chris

Subject: I have a few thoughts aout birthdays for possible

discussion!!

 

Hi Everyone,

I have a few thoughts about birthdays for possible discussion on this

wonderful Life Lift group that Rashelle started for us so many years ago

which does not have any direct bearing on Life Lift breathing. However,

I thought that since so many of us are having birthdays this month, or

have had birthdays this month already. that I would bring this up now.

This is something that I have thought about for many years and still

constantly think about during these last decades of my life.

My main thought about birthdays is a total mystery to me, and maybe to

some of you, too. Maybe some of you have had this same thought. That

thought is this: It has often occurred to me, and still very often

does, that when we were kids and young adults (maybe until the time of

20, or maybe even before that age) we were always very excited and

elated to reach the end of one year of our lives and to embark on the

next. We were always so excited about reaching the next year of our

lives that we had to tell everyone in creation that we were one year

older than we were the day before our birthday days. I remember that

after I had finished my 9th birthday and started my 10th, I ran all over

our house and neighborhood, yelling very excitedly, " I'm two numbers

now. " I am one of the very few people I know of who still, at the age

of nearly 61, am still excited about reaching each successive birthday

and telling everyone how old I am!!!

So, my thought (and the only other one I am going to mention here, as I

am not writing an elementary school essay) is: " What happened to most

people after they reached a certain age during their early adulthood

somewhere in their 20s? What happens that makes most people afraid of

their birthdays and of growing older? Why do they go from being excited

about " being two numbers now " when they reach their 10th birthdays to

actually dreading each new year of their lives?

I hope that nobody minds my having brought this puzzling (to me) issue

up and that you will all enjoy a discussion of this, to me, very

mysterious conundrum!!! Are any of you interested in discussion this,

even though it has absolutely nothing to do with Life Lift breathing?

Love always,

Pat

Hi

Nice to hear from you and I'm glad that you saw this posting of mine and

that you answered me, as, to tell you the truth, I did not think anyone

would. I loved reading your thoughts, and, yes, I do remember that

jingle " You're not getting older, you're getting better " from that old

Clairol commercial, very well, in fact. I'll tell you, that my

actual goal is to once again have the body of a prepubescent 10 year old

in 4 years, by the time I reach 65 years old, but, the great thing about

puberty the second time around is that I will never get my former

periods again, thank God!!! Remember those monthlies we used to get?

Yuck for sure, right?

I have never been married and I have never had kids. So, well... You

know where THAT comment might have been leading, right? So, I'll let

you fill in the blanks as you see fit, dear!! So, once again,

thank you for your thoughts and memories about the things I said. It's

really so nice to hear from everyone of us and to get into each other's

heads once in awhile, isn't it?

And, guess what, (and everyone else, too)!! I have always looked

20 years younger than I actually was, anyway. So, I am wondering if I

WILL actually look 10 years old by the time I hit 65 in 4 years from

now!!! Well, as my Mom and Dad used to say, " We will see what we will

see!!! " Gee, my Mom has been gone since back in 1996, and my Dad has

been gone since WAY, WAY, WAY back in 1974. So, I actually do not even

remember my Dad very well, but that is another long story altogether

which I will leave till another time.

Once again, thanks for your input, and it is nice seeing you post

to our group tonight, dear!!

Love always,

Pat

What a truly fun topic. I love knowing that all of you out there get to enjoy

the fun that comes with aging well with LifeLift. I love the aging process. I

find that I feel better and look forward to each new year without an ounce of

fear because of LifeLift and my great skin care products. I feel certain that

for most of us that if we take good care of ourselves, have a bright smile for

those we meet and we constantly soak up all the joy that is around us, life will

just get sweeter and sweeter as we age. I am coming up on 68 this year and I am

loving every minute of it. Something happens almost daily to make me appreciate

the gift of LifeLift and my natural Face Lift kit. My girls and I love to go to

lunch at a local restaurant that offers a large discount on meals if you are

over 65. I kept handing the lady my discount card every time we would go in and

every time she would just push it back to me without giving me the discount.

One day I simply asked why she was not giving me the discount on our meals. She

said " There is no way you deserve it. You are not over 65 " I assured her that I

am and showed her my drivers license with photo. She said " sorry " and it has

become good for a laugh every time we are in since then. I love all the senior

discounts. I get to enjoy the discounts and the fun that comes with telling

people my age. I was at the social security office yesterday getting a

replacement card and changing my address and I loved the reaction from the man

behind the counter. After he asked if I was really over 65 he said nothing for a

few minutes then made some very nice comments that made me feel really great.

The last thing he said as I was leaving was " Keep doing whatever it is you are

doing...It is absolutely working. Your skin is beautiful. I would have never

guessed you are even close to your age. " Our wonderful not so secret weapon

against aging of course is LifeLift and the Natural Face Lift kit. I use them

both faithfully and they are making my aging process more than a little happy.

I hope you are all realizing how much fun it is to get better and better,

healthier and healthier, stronger and stronger and having the special kind of

beauty that you can only have that comes with the wisdom that comes with living

a long and beautiful life. Here is to every year of our wonderful lives...Here

is to every sweet, healthy breath you take. Be Blessed, Be Healthy and take good

care,

Rashelle
