THE OLDER YOU GET THE STRONGER YOU GET


Walking, daily exercise, moving the muscles, stretching the legs, shrugging the shoulders, tapping the foot, rotating the ankles, walking faster than is comfortable, moving the arms as you walk, a commitment to stay in shape, lifting heavy objects, lifting hand weights, climbing stairs, avoiding elevators, massaging your knees, raining down warm shower water on the joints, tensing up and then relaxing, taking yoga classes, feeling the needs of your body, resting and action, one then the other, deep breathing, shallow relaxed breathing, increasing the pulse rate, keeping up with those who are younger, not allowing yourself to feel old, not giving in, not giving up.

The older you get the stronger you get. Not giving in, not giving up. The meaning of good health with the rewards of longevity.
