Green and Growing,
or Ripe and Rotten?
 I
once heard a proverb that says, “You are either green and growing or
ripe and rotten”. I have seen 7 through 40 year olds that are ripe
and rotten. We will showcase senior citizens in their 70’s and 80’s
that are green and growing and who share what gives them their zest
for living; what keeps them healthy, happy, and excited about life.
Clearly, it is not about age; it is about attitude. Our health and
the quality of our existence are determined by our state of mind. In
fact, studies show that older people tend to be the happiest. Yet
there are so many among us who are “sick and tired” or “tired of
being sick”. more
