Shine Like A Star
As Life hurtles by like a star
It’s here, but its end is not far,
So why not shine bright
While there still is some light,
And sparkle and be singular!
We all have our moments of gloom,
In what’s called our small “worry room”.
If you open that door
Your problems will soar
And resolve and dissolve all that doom!

Life is like an endless voyage:
A one-way ticket to each age.
No boarding pass or reservations
Are needed traveling through Time’s “stations”.
If your conductor is first rate,
And your mind’s view is just great,
The panoramic years will seem
Enhanced by living Age Esteem.

The Unique You
A splash of new perfume
A wave of pin-curled hair
A blush of rouge to bloom
To make you think you’re “there”!
But artifact is not the clue
To seeking disappearing youth
The way to keep the unique you
Is to practice Age Esteemeth’s Truths.

Under The Weather
Feeling “under the weather” has a negative kind of ring,
But the weather you are under might be sunny IF you sing!
Moods are clouds which will abate,
Fog-like shrouds shall dissipate –
When you face a stormy day…
All your rainy moods will sway,
Bringing rainbows and their beams
Sky lit up by Age Esteem.

Always Try Esteem!
Never is a rigid word,
It never makes much sense,
Because sometimes just might come along
And often clears that fence!
Seldom seems to bridge some gaps
‘Tween perhaps and it seems,
Forever is too long a lapse,
But always try Esteem!

You Are A Gift To All Generations
You are a gift to all generations!
A dynamic 40+ career woman who is highly successful in what she does, and love her job shared the following advice with me.
When she heard about AgeEsteem her reaction was, “What a wonderful idea! Older people need to recognize what a wonderful asset and resource they are. They seem to shy away from younger people, yet we all need each other.”
She went on to explain, “When I first started to attend conferences, my parents told me to always seek out the oldest person. That person was sure to know more than my peers. So I did. I sought out and befriended older people. I learned so much more that way. In fact I owe these people much of my professional success and understanding of human relations.”
So do not shy away from people of other generations. Seek them out, speak with them and learn from them.

Life Is A Salad
Life is a salad,
Green at its best,
Mixed with a dressing,
Experienced with zest.
Each day is your garden
Grown with much care;
As you learn to pardon
The weeds of despair.

Leaving
Leaving need NOT be grieving
It could be just farewell!
Believing you’ll be seeing
Family; friends : that’s swell!
One door shuts, another opens –
Ring each and every bell.
First you’re going, then you’re coming
Only Time will tell.
Thinking that the Best is still to come,
Life’s not always what it seems.
It depends on “where you’re coming from”,
And learning how to AgeEsteem.

Rain, Rain Please Stay!
Rain, Rain don’t go away,
Stay and sprinkle on our day!
It is NOT always funny
To have it HOT and sunny.
So, even though our shoes get damp,
And our hair “shades” like a lamp’s,
We can sparkle in a shower,
Moisturized like some rare flower!
Rain, Rain, please rain awhile,
It will moisten up my smile,
Glisten all my radiant beams
And lubricate my Age Esteem!

Train Your Brain
Train your brain to make the most
Of Life, and even try to boast
About the talents you have shown –
The ones unique to you alone.
Train your brain and Lo and Behold
You’ll never think you’re growing old.
Think Young, and very soon you’ll seem
To exemplify Age Esteem!
