Who says our body has to be in perfect health

To enjoy life and live a life of service?

Bodily health is important

But, a decrease in health as we age is normal

Does that mean I can’t do my belly laugh?

Does that mean I can’t enjoy the beauty of art?

Does that mean I can’t be of service to others?

I can do all of that because my spirit is still healthy

And going strong

It’s my attitude that’s important

My optimism

My gratitude

My enthusiasm

All qualities of my spirit

And if my body’s health is less that’s perfect

So be it!
