Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for
Every conceivable deficiency of the modern world,
real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility
for all we have done and do not blame others.

HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would like to point
out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took:

The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The courtesy out of driving,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,
The learning out of education,
The service out of patriotism,
The Golden Rule from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behaviour,
The refinement out of language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
The ambition out of achievement, or,
God out of government and school.

And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and tolerance from personal relationships
and interactions with others!!




YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!

I'm the life of the party...... even if it lasts until 8 p.m.
I'm very good at opening childproof caps..... with a hammer.
I'm usually interested in going home before I get to where I am going.
I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up.
I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a thing you're saying.
I'm very good at telling stories; over and over and over and over...
I'm so cared for -- long term care, eye care, private care, dental care.



I'm not really grouchy; I just don't like traffic, waiting in long queues, crowds, lawyers, unruly kids, barking dogs, politicians and a few other things I can't seem to remember right now.

I'm sure everything I can't find is in a safe secure place, somewhere.

I'm wrinkled, saggy, lumpy, and that's just my left leg..

I'm having trouble remembering simple words like.....

I'm beginning to realize that aging is not for wimps.

I'm sure they are making adults much younger these days, and when did they let kids become policemen?

I'm wondering, if you're only as old as you feel, how could I be alive at 150?

I'm a walking storeroom of facts..... I've just lost the key to the storeroom door.



Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and I think I am having the time of my life!

I am not a senior yet but I guess I am "oldfashioned" cause I am right there with you Ditter;)

I am old-fashioned and proud of it
:D

Of course you find another cute one! I like the one about the storeroom the best!

thanks

I can relate to that!!!I spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter......I am here to get something, now what did I came after...

Sense of humor always helps in life. Especially, in our second childhood. I love your jokes, Ditter!! Keep them coming on.

Thanks Ditter! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

That was great Ditter! I personally dont understand why everyone has to drive 10 or more miles above the speed limit all the time.....

Right on Ditter!!!! I'm a senior citizen and very proud of it. I earned it.

Love it. Truer words haven't been spoken.
