What it means to turn the BIG EIGHTY!
To keep the heart unwrinkled, to be hopeful, kindly, cheerful, reverent that is to triumph over old age. -Thomas B. Aldrich
What is it like to have been on this planet for over 80 years? To be 80 is a blessing! It is like being a survivor whose had quite a few close calls and somehow still managed to land back on their feet. You may not look as good as you did when you were 30, but you sure do know so much more. It is something to be said in having experience, so be proud of your age. The days dwindle down and one becomes more aware than ever before, that there’s less time left, something that younger people seem to take for granted and rarely question. It becomes almost instinctive to savor and appreciate the time that is left. One now looks longingly to go back and relive as many memories as possible. Most of those people are now gone through death or just by losing touch with them, but most memories are rather nice. Some memories one might rather forget, but they’re all important. They all go into making us who we are. So you look back at the 80 years and can smile because you can see all the special moments in life that occurred.. Turning 80 is definitely a milestone to brag about. You can say you have survived the following: First, you survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried you. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn’t get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, your baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paints. You had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when you rode your bikes, you had no helmets, not to mention, the risks you took hitchhiking.
as long as you were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to reach you all day, and you were O.K. You would spend hours building your go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out you forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, you learned to solve the problem. You did not have PlayStations, Nintendo’s, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound, no cell phones, no text messaging, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms..........YOU HAD FRIENDS and you went outside and found them! You fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents .You played with worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever. You were given BB guns for your 10th birthday, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and although you were told it would happen, you did not put out very many eyes. You rode bikes or walked to a friend’s house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just yelled for them!
Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn’t, had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!! The idea of a parent bailing us out if you broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law! This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever! The past 50 years have been an explosion As children, you would ride in cars with no seat belts of innovation and new ideas. You had freedom, failure, success or air bags. Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm and responsibility, and you learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT day was always a special treat. You drank water from ALL! the garden hose and NOT from a bottle. You shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO CONGRATULATIONS AND HAPPY 80TH BIRTHDAY! ONE actually died from this. You ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank soda pop with sugar in it, but you weren’t overweight because......YOU WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!! You would leave home in the morning and play all day,
