I’d always wanted to start my own advertising firm, and when I set it up a few years ago, many told me I should have done so when I was younger. For me it was not too late to dream and make it a success.
An old couple stopped by a pharmacy, “Do you sell heart medication?” they asked. He said that of course they do. “Then how about medicine for circulation?”
The druggist replied, “All kinds.”
“Do you have drugs for rheumatism, arthritis, memory problems and scoliosis?”
The pharmacist assured them that they had a wide array of medicines for all of those problems and more. “And you sell wheelchairs, walkers and canes?”
“Absolutely,” said the druggist, “Whatever you need.”
They looked at each other and smiled. “Who needs all of this?” asked the puzzled pharmacist.
“We!” they both cried together, “We plan to get married, and want to enjoy life together, so we’d like all our guests to buy our wedding gifts from here!”
Television personality Hugh Downs reported some good news for seniors. He said when older adults are properly motivated, their intelligence does not wane, in fact, the ability to organize thinking may actually increase as folks age. Many people in their 50’s, 60’s and even 70’s can go through college with greater efficiency than at 18. Adults over 70 years of age have contributed richly and in varied ways.
Emmanuel Kant wrote his finest philosophical works at age 74.
Verdi at 80 produced “Falstaff” and at 85, “Ave Maria.”
Goethe was 80 when he completed “Faust.”
Tennyson was 80 when he wrote “Crossing the Bar.
Michelangelo completed what may have been his greatest work at age 87.
At age 90, Justice Holmes was still writing brilliant American Supreme Court opinions.
And then there’s George Dawson. George learned to read at age 98. “I got tired of writing my name with an ‘X,'” he said. Four years later, at age 102, he co-authored his autobiography, LIFE IS SO GOOD, published by Random House.
You are never too old to dream. No matter your age. You can also breathe new life into old dreams. In
fact, you have to keep dreaming or else you will wither away altogether.
I closed my ad business about a year ago, and set out to write a few books. The first one DARE goes out in less than two weeks, and guess what the first chapter is?
Dare to Dream!
Yes, dare to dream folks, because you’re never too old to make it happen..!
