This book was published in 1996 and has been read by and still fills thousands of libraries. I am now making it available for you my friends of this blog. From time to time used copies are available on amazon.com

More thoughts guaranteed to make you seem younger and feel younger.

5. Be A Survivor

Don’t let hard times get you down. Let them be learning experiences. Know that up always follows down. Remember, there are people who have survived shipwrecks ad concentration camps. Be a cork; pop to the surface, ride out the storms of life. Learn how to turn what at first seems to be finish lines into starting lines. It is, indeed, not how hard you hit bottom but how high you bounce.

Accept your importance

When you are praised, a simple thank you does quite nicely. Don’t let yourself get into the habit of replying, “it was nothing…anyone could have done it.” In other words, don’t rain on your own parade.

Cultivate a good sense of humor

Be able to laugh at yourself rather than at others. Winston Churchill, when asked if he was thrilled by the large audiences that showed up to hear him speak, replied, “I am quite flattered, but then I remind myself that twice as many would show up to see me hanged.”

Or, perhaps be like the man who found himself stuck with a warehouse full of canned white salmon.

Housewives would not buy it because they were used to pink salmon. He then got the inspired idea to advertise: Snow white Alaska salmon. Guaranteed not to turn pink in the can.

Learn not to be pushy

Ever tried to push a piece of string? It didn’t go anywhere did it? Pull it and it will follow you to the ends of the earth. Are there family members or friends you would like to see go in other directions? Move them by example. And if that doesn’t work, at least one person will be doing what you think is important, you.

A HEAVENLY CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM(1st in series) (on this WyrIck’s Writing blog)

It began Sunday Dec 26, 2010

“I have always been intrigued by a question God put to Adam, “Where are you?” Why did He ask that? What is the meaning behind this? It wasn’t a geographical question, for certainly God knew the answer to that one.

BELOW IS A QUOTE FROM the SERIES on this Wyrick’s Writings site entitled ANGER IS A KILLER. It began Thursday January 6, 2010.

“Do you enjoy visiting friends? More than likely you’re thinking, Preacher, of course, I do.

Now let me ask the other side of the coin - Do you enjoy visiting enemies? No?

Well, I know you must enjoy visiting at least one enemy because, like myself, you probably visit this one quite often. Unfortunately, we all …visit this enemy…whose name is anger.

Some visit anger seldom . Some on a regular basis. And during those visits, some spew and others stew.”
