Just finished watching a wonderful documentary hosted by Carl Reiner. He played the boss of Dick Van Dyke in a huge television hit in the early sixties. He has a famous son Rob Reiner who played the character “Meathead” in the successful and not so politically correct All in the Family in the early seventies. And went on to become one of Hollywood’s most successful directors. The title of the documentary is If you’re not in the Obit, eat breakfast.
Reiner’s quest is to find out why some folks live into their nineties and beyond. He has fellow nonagenarians and other centenarians Dick Van Dyke, Tony Bennett, Betty White, Norman Lear and Mel Brooks share why they have had a long life. Some common elements is they never retired, they keep busy, they keep learning and they have a passion for life.
I am 76 and my beautiful life partner is 71. People who encounter us who don’t know us are surprised when they find out our age. We are both very active physically. We both eat very healthy vegan diets. We are very active in communities in such things as climate change, sustainability, conscious cinema and musical performing. Hardly anyone knows when they will die and tomorrow is never guaranteed. However, if you desire a long healthy, happy, productive, abundant life the odds are with you when you do what you love and do it with passion and you put a lot of energy into it.
Tomorrow is Monday for many of us. Let us make this day a commitment to find out what it is we love to do. Then ask Universe to support you in creating your loving vocation. Then brainstorm with loved ones who want only the best for you to find the connections to reach your goal. If you want our support, email us at [email protected] or [email protected] and we will give you whatever support we can. Don’t settle for a life that doesn’t contain all of your love, passion and energy. Give it all you got! From my heart to yours, Thomas.
Aloha my friends,
A long healthy happy prescription-free life is quite simple…isn’t it ? ! ?
What sets your heart on fire ?
