This old bone, I tell ya, life over 50, it ain’t so bad. This is allover50. Some folks, they get all sad and mopey. Think life’s over when the wrinkles start showin’. But I say, nah, it’s just gettin’ started!
Find Happiness Allover50
My old man, bless his soul, he used to say, “Life’s what ya make it.” And he was right. Even when you’re over 50, you gotta make your own sunshine. You wanna be happy allover50? Gotta look for the good stuff. Like when the grandkids come visit. Or when the tomatoes in the garden are plump and juicy. That’s the good stuff.
Don’t be dwellin’ on the past. What’s done is done. You got aches and pains? Sure, who doesn’t at our age? But focus on what ya can do, not what ya can’t. That’s what I always say when you are allover50.
- See the grandkids. They keep ya young.
- Tend to your garden. Nothin’ better than fresh veggies.
- Sit on the porch and watch the world go by. It’s free entertainment.
- Play some cards with your friends.
- Take a nap when you wanna. That’s the benefit of life allover50.
New Beginnings Allover50
Just ’cause you’re over 50, don’t mean you’re done learnin’. Heck, I learned how to use that darn computer last year. Took me a while, but I got it! You can learn new things too. Keeps the mind sharp, they say.
Maybe the kids are all grown and gone. Maybe you’re on your own now. It’s a chance to do somethin’ new! Always wanted to paint? Get yourself some paints! Want to travel? Go see the world! Well, maybe not the whole world, but you know what I mean. You are still able to do something when you are allover50.
Laugh a Little Allover50
Lord knows, we all need a good laugh. Life’s too short to be serious all the time. Watch a funny movie. Tell some jokes. Even if they’re corny, who cares? A good belly laugh is good for the soul, I tell ya, when you are allover50.
Don’t be afraid to be silly. Dance around the kitchen if you feel like it. Sing your heart out, even if you’re off-key. Who’s gonna judge ya? Just have fun!
Friends are Important Allover50
Good friends are like gold. They stick with ya through thick and thin. Make time for your friends. Have coffee, play some bingo, just chat. It’s good to have someone to talk to, someone who understands what you’re goin’ through.
You can make new friend too when you are allover50. Join the club in your community. Talk to others when you are in park. They might have fun story to tell.
Take Care of Yourself Allover50
Now, I ain’t sayin’ you gotta run a marathon. But you gotta take care of yourself. Eat your veggies. Get some exercise. Even if it’s just walkin’ around the block. Keeps the blood flowin’, you know.
Go to your doctor and have check up. It’s important to know your body.
And don’t forget about your mind. Read a book. Do a puzzle. Keep that brain workin’. It’s important to have a health mind when you are allover50.
Enjoy the Little Things Allover50
Life ain’t all about the big things. Sometimes, it’s the little things that make you happy. A sunny day. A good cup of coffee. A bird singin’ in the tree. A kind word from a stranger.
Sometime, it is just a nap.
Pay attention to those little things. They add up, you know. They make life worth livin’, even when you’re allover50.
Do What You Love Allover50
You got time now. Do the things you love. Don’t put ’em off anymore. Life allover50 is not forever. If you always wanted to write a book, write it. If you always wanted to learn to play the guitar, learn it.
If you want to be happy, you need to find what you love. It could be anything. And when you find it, you will find happy.
It’s your life. Live it the way you want to. Don’t let anyone tell you you’re too old to do somethin’. You’re never too old to be happy. You are never too old to do something when you are allover50.
Be Grateful Allover50
I know life ain’t always easy. We all have our troubles. But there’s always somethin’ to be grateful for. Your health. Your family. Your friends. A roof over your head. Food on the table.
When you are allover50, it is a good habit to be grateful for what you have.
Count your blessings, as they say. It’ll make you feel better, I promise. And when you feel better, you’ll be happier. And that’s what it’s all about, ain’t it? Being happy, even when you’re over 50.
