The Senior Thing Again




Yeah, and it is not our faults our children turned out to be little !!!!!



You all may not be a senior but you need to understand where we came from

THIS IS US!!!
Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know and  we take responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others.

HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took... 
The melody out of music,


The 
pride out of appearance,


The 
courtesy out of driving,


The 
romance out of love,


The 
commitment out of marriage,


The 
responsibility out of parenthood,


The 
togetherness out of the family,


The 
learning out of education,


The 
service out of patriotism,


The 
Golden Rule from rulers,


The 
nativity scene out of cities,


The 
civility out of behavior,


The 
refinement out of language,  (we didn't use the "F"-word every other word) 
  

The 
dedication out of employment,


The 
prudence out of spending,


The 
ambition out of achievement or
God out of government and school. 

 
And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and  tolerance from personal relationships and interactions with others!!

And, we do understand the meaning of patriotism, and remember those who have fought and died for our country.
 

Just look at the Seniors with tears in their eyes and pride in their hearts as they stand
 at attention with their hand over their hearts!

YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!

I'm the life of the party..... Even if it lasts until 8 p.m.

I'm very good at opening childproof caps..... With a hammer.

I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up.
 I 'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a thing you're saying.

I'm sure everything I can't find is in a safe secure place, somewhere.

I'm wrinkled, saggy, lumpy, and that's just my left leg.

I'm beginning to realize that aging is not for wimps.

Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and I think I am having the time of my life!


Now if I could only remember who sent this to me, I wouldn't send it back to them, but I would send it to many more too!
 

Spread the laughter
Share the cheer
Let's be happy
While we're here. 

And, MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA
AND MAY AMERICA BLESS GOD!! 

  Go Green - Recycle CONGRESS!!
