Nectar Of Wisdom

Duration of Life.

Length of time that one has existed.

One of the stages of life.

A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams.

Age appears to be best in some things. Old wood, best to burn. Old books, best to read. Old rice, best to eat and old friends, best to keep.

Age does not determine who’s right, it only determines how much is left.

Age gives good advice when it is no longer able to give bad example. – American Proverb
 

Age is a number, old is in your head.

Age is a question of mind over matter, if you don’t mind, it don’t matter.

Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

An age is called Dark, not because the light fails to shine, but because people refuse to see it.   – James A. Michener

An old man T-shirt reads “I am not 60. I am 16 with 44 years of experience.”

Cherish all your happy moments: they make a fine cushion for old age.  – Christopher Morley
 

Every drop of our sweat at young age will reduce ten drops of tears at older age.

Forty is the old age of youth; Fifty is the youth of old.

From middle age on, everything of interest is either illegal, immoral or fattening.  – American Proverb
 

Growing old is mandatory … Growing up is optional.

Growing old is more psychological than physical.    – Hemant C. Lodha

If you carry your childhood with you… You’ll never become older.

In old age it is frustrating that you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you question.

Life is a process of Growing or Ageing. Adding years to life is Ageing But adding life to Years is Growing.

Live a good & honorable life. When you get older and think back, you’ll be able to enjoy it a second time.

Live your life and forget your age.

Old age is like climbing a mountain. The higher you get, the more tired and breathless you become. But your view and vision become much more extensive.

One advantage in growing older is that you can stand for more and fall for less  – Monta Crane

 

Some people ,no matter how old they get, never lose their beauty. They merely move it from their faces to their hearts.

The advantage age has over youth is that youth knows nothing about being old, whereas the old know all about being young.

 

The oldest trees often bear the sweetest fruit.   – German Proverb

The secret to staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.

Time is a very good healer but a very bad beautician.

We do not stop laughing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop laughing.

We must view young people not as empty bottles to be filled but as candles to be lit.

When a father helps his son to walk, both laugh. When a son helps his father to walk, both cry.

God granted Age to Humans

God created the donkey and said to him: “You will be a donkey. You will work untiringly from sunrise to sunset carrying burdens on your back. You will eat grass, you will have no intelligence and you will live 50 years.

The donkey answered: ‘I will be a donkey, but to live 50 years is too much. Give me only 20 years.” God granted his wish.

God created the dog and said to him: “You will guard the house of man. You will be his best friend. You will eat the scraps that he gives you and you will live 25 years.

The dog answered: ‘Sir, to live 25 years is too much, give me only 10 years.’ God granted his wish.

God created the monkey and said to him: “You will be a monkey. You will swing from branch to branch doing tricks. You will be amusing and you will live 20 years.”

The monkey answered: ‘To live 20 years is too much, give me only 10 years.’ God granted his wish.

Finally God created man and said to him: ‘yolJ will be man, the only rational creature on the face of the earth. You will use your intelligence to become master over all the animals. You will dominate the world and you will live 20 years.’

Man responded: ‘Sir, I will be man but to live only 20 years is very little, give me the 30 years that the donkey refused, the 15 years that the dog did not want and the 10 years the monkey refused. God granted man’s wish.

And since then, man lives 20 years as a man, he marries and spends 30 years like a donkey, working and carrying all the burdens on his back. Then when his children are gone, he lives 15 years like a dog, taking care of the house and eating whatever is given to him, so that when he is old he can retire and live 10 years like a monkey, going from house to house, from one son or daughter to another, doing tricks to amuse his grandchildren.

 

Moral of the Story:

Quality of life is more important than the length of life.

 

When we have time and strength our understanding about life is not RIGHT and when we have the understanding, Time and strength are not LEFT. 

You can only be young once, but you can be immature forever. 

You start aging once you stop learning. 

Your mid-life crisis starts the day you suddenly realize that you are going to die someday. 

You’re getting old when you get the same sensation from rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster.

 

count your life by smiles
not tears
count your age by friends
not years
