Three Timeless Secrets

We]... gain... wisdom from those who have lived a long time.Job 12:12

You can learn a lot from "those who have lived a long time." One elderly lady shares the following:
"One benefit of living so long is sharing what I've learned. So make my day by letting me share three secrets that can make your life better:

(1) Time is precious, don't waste it!
Do everything you can to live in harmony and show your love. Why? Because no matter how long you have together, it's never enough.

(2) You're making memories so make them good ones!
Create memories - not regrets!

(3) It's not what happens, it's how you respond that counts!
Every day holds new challenges that'll test your love and resolve. You have the power through Christ to make each test an occasion for growth. Life's full of seemingly unpleasant events. Try to handle them in such a waythat when you're old you'll look back and say, 'I thank You God for that experience; it helped me grow.'"
