I once asked a ninety-two year old about his amazingly good health and longevity. He answered with a smile, "Simple - I never get angry and never harbor any negative feelings in my heart or brain. Therefore, my heart is sound, my digestive system is normal, and thank God, I don't know what a headache is." This particular individual had lived through poverty and several wars.
 
I pressed the point a little bit: "How can a person be as happy with the bad experiences in life as he can with the good?" Here's the reply I received:
 
Just remember three rules of thumb:
 
1. The Almighty runs the world;
2. The Almighty has infinite love for all of his creations;
3. The Almighty knows what's best for each one of us.
 
When you combine these three rules, you're left with no reason in the world to worry or to be angry." Worry and the above three rules of thumb simply don't go together. Without worry, you too will be feeling healthy and happy at age ninety-two.
