    Smile Does anything really matter?

    At the end of the day we are all going to die and there is nothing that we can do about it - expect perhaps just live well and properly, treat our fellow man and woman with kindness and have some fun while we are actually here (and able!).

    Is there any chance that a few more posters around here could try this novel experiment!

    At the end of the day?

    Do you know something we don't know.

    Freddie Mercury said it perfectly...

    "Bohemian Rhapsody"

    Is this the real life?
    Is this just fantasy?
    Caught in a landslide,
    No escape from reality.

    Open your eyes,
    Look up to the skies and see,
    I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
    Because I'm easy come, easy go,
    Little high, little low,
    Anyway the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me................


    Nothing really matters,
    Anyone can see,
    Nothing really matters,
    Nothing really matters to me.

    Anyway the wind blows.

    what matters is the story you see of your own life on your deathbed. Live your live the way you want it to be. Its never too late to start either. Most people are afraid of change and are too hung up on their past to focus on their future. They spend most of their lives dreaming and hoping.

    Advice from an 80 year old man............
    1. Have a firm handshake.
    2. Look people in the eye.
    3. Sing in the shower.
    4. Own a great stereo system.
    5. If in a fight, hit first and hit hard.
    6. Keep secrets.
    7. Never give up on anybody. Miracles happen everyday.
    8. Always accept an outstretched hand.
    9. Be brave. Even if you're not, pretend to be. No one can tell the difference.
    10. Whistle.
    11. Avoid sarcastic remarks.
    12. Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90 per cent of all your happiness or misery.
    13. Make it a habit to do nice things for people who will never find out.
    14. Lend only those books you never care to see again.
    15. Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have.
    16. When playing games with children, let them win.
    17. Give people a second chance, but not a third.
    18. Be romantic.
    19. Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
    20. Loosen up. Relax. Except for rare life-and-death matters, nothing is as important as it first seems.
    21. Don't allow the phone to interrupt important moments. It's there for our convenience, not the caller's.
    22. Be a good loser.
    23. Be a good winner.
    24. Think twice before burdening a friend with a secret.
    25. When someone hugs you, let them be the first to let go.
    26. Be modest. A lot was accomplished before you were born.
    27. Keep it simple.
    28. Beware of the person who has nothing to lose.
    29. Don't burn bridges. You'll be surprised how many times you have to cross the same river.
    30. Live your life so that your epitaph could read, No Regrets
    31. Be bold and courageous. When you look back on life, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did.
    32. Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them.
    33. Remember no one makes it alone. Have a grateful heart and be quick to acknowledge those who helped you.
    34. Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone else choose it for you.
    35. Visit friends and relatives when they are in hospital; you need only stay a few minutes.
    36. Begin each day with some of your favourite music.
    37. Once in a while, take the scenic route.
    38. Send a lot of Valentine cards. Sign them, 'Someone who thinks you're terrific.'
    39. Answer the phone with enthusiasm and energy in your voice.
    40. Keep a note pad and pencil on your bed-side table. Million-dollar ideas sometimes strike at 3 a.m.
    41. Show respect for everyone who works for a living, regardless of how trivial their job.
    42. Send your loved ones flowers. Think of a reason later.
    43. Make someone's day by paying the toll for the person in the car behind you.
    44. Become someone's hero.
    45. Marry only for love.
    46. Count your blessings.
    47. Compliment the meal when you're a guest in someone's home.
    48. Wave at the children on a school bus.
    49. Remember that 80 per cent of the success in any job is based on your ability to deal with people.
    50. Don't expect life to be fair
