  • Slow The Circle Down: The Real Secrets of Staying Young

    Tuesday July 21st, 2009 at 00:53 | Rating: 5 | Report

    You're so right about learning and how it keeps the mind fresh. As an LD (and ADHD as well.) adult in my 50s I found I was losing the ability to retrieve words about 20 years ago in simple every day conversations, but the more I read and the more challenging the material the better I did at retrieval. I'm taking classes again as well as writing articles weekly and totally loving it!

    I love to write, but can seldom pull off a humorous situation with all its little nuances like you did in the Canada Day Reflections. This was really a great read and I so enjoyed it.

    I don't give fives often, but being of Irish decent and loving this music myself I was enthralled with your site! Especially seeing that my beloved music has traveled so far. You have gone farther than me by the way because we don't have an Irish heritage society here where I live and I have yet to tackle Gaelic!

    I have been in this lovely "mitten," for at least a year - but we are surround by so many places to visit that I haven't missed traveling the world - yet! Nice pictures and tempting scenes.

    Chris M, I miss coffee! Had some major surgery that really affected my stomach and now I can't have that one cup of joe in the morning anymore! I still enjoy the smell since I make it for my husband...but it just isn't the same!

    I agree with Chris - but your hobby could become a job if you're not careful! ;-)

    Since I consider myself more a child of the 60s than much else, I find a connection with much you say here. Thoughtful and provoking thought at the same time.
