XCR1250 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 The World's six best doctors ... worth reading--------- Steve Jobs died a billionaire ( $10.2b ) at age 56. This is his final essay: "I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In some others' eyes, my life is the epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, my wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to. At this moment, lying on my bed and recalling my life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in have paled and become meaningless in the face of my death. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone bear your sickness for you. Material things lost can be found or replaced. But there is one thing that can never be found when it's lost - Life. Whichever stage in life you are in right now, with time, you will face the day when the curtain comes down. Treasure love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well and cherish others. As we grow older, and hopefully wiser, we realize that a $300 or a $30 watch both tell the same time. You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world. Whether you fly first class or economy, if the plane goes down - you go down with it. Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, have sing songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth, that is true happiness! Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy. So when they grow up they will know the value of things and not the price. Eat your food as your medicine, otherwise you have to eat medicine as your food. There is a big difference between a human being and being human. Only a few really understand it. You are loved when you are born. You will be loved when you die. In between, you have to manage! The six best doctors in the world are sunlight, rest, exercise, diet, self-confidence and friends. Maintain them in all stages and enjoy a healthy life." : 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 It’s not bad, a little sappy though. It’s funny how true it is that “money cannot buy happiness”. As we get older (and assuming wealthier), I bet most feel like I do....I’m not happier than when I didn’t have money, I just have better means that shifts my thoughts/issues. Funny on the watch comment also. I’ve got a $7K Rolex, a $500 Swiss dive watch and a $75 Casio G-shock. The G shock is better and that’s what i wear. The other two are nothing more than dress accessories. Wow. There’s a life analogy in there somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
