And On The Lighter Side...
GOD’S GIFT
One day in the Garden of Eden, God said to Adam, “I am going to give you the perfect mate!
She is beau ful and will care for you, cook, clean and wash for you, sing to you and treat you
like a King.“ Adam responded, “Great! So, what’s this gonna cost me?” God replies, “An arm
and a leg.” Adam thinks a minute and says, “What can I get for a rib?”
UPPER BODY STRENGTH FOR SENIORS
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5-lb potato
bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try
to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can hold this posi on for just a bit longer.
ALer a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags. Then try 50-lb potato bags and then eventually try to
get to where you can liL a 100-lb potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full
minute. (I'm at this level.) ALer you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.
NOBLE NIPPING
Some mes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink I feel shame, then I look into the glass and think about
the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn’t drink this wine, they might be out
of work and their dreams would be sha8ered. Then I say to myself, “It is be8er that I drink this wine and let
their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.”
