zerostao Posted 17 hours ago (edited) For a long long time. So yeah, a little bird chirped to me there is talk about TDB having a core of an older crowd. I chirped back to that little bird, stick around, you ain't seen nothing yet. Daoist Longevity Practices is definitely a thing. I'm sure talk will get around to Li Ching-Yuen. Let's start the thread by looking at DVD That's right Dick van Dyke looks at his 100 years, and he provides so many examples, lessons, thoughts, on longevity. If we imagine someone to have a positive outlook, ability to brighten up other's day, Relaxed physicality, ( if you need to see what song/sung looks like, look no further) Staying active, still goes to gym three times a week, to avoid stiffening up. And a sense of humor and a warm caring heart. This is how one gets Longevity. Yes, he is rich and that helps I'm sure. But being rich is not what defines him.

zerostao Posted 1 hour ago Thank You Taomeow for sharing that. Endeavor to persevere. Resilient rhymes with resistant. Spoiler Spoiler No one is accusing me of "sanity" & I ain't everyone's cup of tea either. And a former mod team/admin once labeled me a 'cowboy' Well, the similarities I have in common with Clint likely end somewhere around there Spoiler Me and Taomeow are still enduring here on TDB, and also other great members here, keep on keeping on. That mod team, admin I mentioned, I miss them. M sure they are faring well, elsewhere This thread is about keeping on keeping on. And doing it well. So dear bums, many of you in your youth, or arriving at some number, that may be messing a little with your mind,, Compare and contrast Dick and Clint. Both are still kicking. This thread gonna run like the Energizer bunny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
