How To Stay Young(Sketches, cartoons)

Hi, Friends, how have you been?
We're in a long weekend because of Queen's birthday, even though I've been hectic and busy with projects these weeks.
Now, a coffee break for you. Do relax. Friends, when you want to stay young, what do you do? I often go to uni, enjoy a chat with young people and get a bit their energy.
But one day, my friend sent me, "how to stay young." Oh, nice. I'm sure all of us want to know tips. Here we go, tadadada~~!!
How to Stay Young
Worry about nothing, pray abouteverything!
We allneed to live life to its fullest each day!

1. Throw outnonessential numbers thatinclude age, weight andheight. Let the doctors worryabout them. That is why you pay 'them.'

Good Friends or Bad Friends?!
2.Surround yourself with whatyou love , whether it'sfriends, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
3. Keep cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. (*My dear friend really loves yoga... )

4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
6. Don't take guilttrips. Take a trip tothe mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where theguilt is.
(Friends, we have to go for shopping to the other side of the world, merrily, happily!!)



7. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
( Yey!!!)
8. Keep learning whatever. Never let the brain idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop."
Students at Library
9. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us ourentire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
10. Cherish yourhealth: If it is good,preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you canimprove, get help.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER :Life is not measured by thenumber of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
And if you don't send this toat least 8 people - whocares? But do share this with someoneʚ(ˆ◡ˆ)ɞ .
* * *
That's it! Ahahahaha! Nice, aren't they?
Let us enjoy our lives! Forever young at heart.
In additon, I put colours on the uni. Next time, I'll challenge it in a loose style. Happy Painting! ʚ(ˆ◡ˆ)ɞ

    今回のは、またまたすてき。考えさせられるわねー。
    自分たちが、どれだけしあわせかって、あまり考える機会がなく、どんどん1日はすぎていく。
    上をみてもきりがないし、下をみてもきりがない。
    自分がやりたいことが、やれるってどれほどしあわせなことかしらっておもうわ。若いころがずっと、水彩をやりたいとおもっていたのに、結局、できずにこんな年れいでのスタートになったから、もっと、早くはじめておけばとおもうこともしばしばだけど、いまさらなんやらおもってもしようがないものね。
    これから、がんがん楽しむだけだわ。
    いい言葉をたくさんありがとう。

      Dear HaniHani,
      んまあ、ありがとう、良かったわあ that we can share the value. そうねえ、後は向かないの。向いて後悔してどうなるの、が私の経験が教える所です。向いてるヒマあったら前に進むの。後悔じゃなく、その過去から学んだ事を生かして前に進むの。たとえ1mmでも1cmでもその方がイイ。私が水彩の筆をもう一度とったのはあなたと大差ありません。いや、もっと浅いかもしれません。また、そんな事比べてどうなります。量(=years)より質(=intensity)の問題です。私は昔他の人を見ましたが(="上を&下を...)今、気になりません。私らしく生きたらソレでいいのです。"Be what I am fully"!ダラダラ生きるのではなく、短くても一生懸命生きてる人のほうが私の目には濃くて尊く見えます。
      Cheers, Sadami
