Age

1. I love the innocence and trust of children; it is sad that we have to abandon this as we grow older. The other day I saw a child skipping on her way to school. When was the last time you saw an adult skipping, having no inhibitions about showing joy?
2. If you anticipate an upcoming age with trepidation (e.g., 40), just make a little commitment to yourself that you will make a certain self-improvement milestone by that date, e.g., you will be able to run or swim further at that age than any time in your life, your weight will be the same as in college, you will learn a new skill, complete a new course, etc.

4. "Die as young as possible at an old age."
5. "[Life is not measured by length, but by depth.]" --john (friend of kristin)
6. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
