I dread the thought of growing old, it's not a happy one. Recently, I'm slowly losing my memory
I came across these senior citizens doing a country dance one Sunday evening. There were actually more than a hundred of them. They looked young and happy. They were so cool in their hip attire! Everyone was having great fun!!!
At a community event, these senior citizens dressed in their colourful Peranakan costumes, sang and danced for us. They made the other elderly folks from various homes happy.
Even when you are old, you can be funny HAPPY!!
We are going for a horniday and I'm so happyyyyyyyy!!!

Hi monkey giggles1
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. Glad you like the post and was amused by it.
Have a happy weekend!
You may be pleasantly surprised when you are "old" that you begin to find true happiness. It ain't all bad!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they do dancing like cowboys anywhere else but Texas.
ReplyDeleteHi meeyauw,
ReplyDeleteIt ain't bad when one gets old after all, but I want the younger people to know the secrets to happiness sooner. :)
midas,
ReplyDeleteIt's very popular in Singapore. I saw people doing this dance in Bangkok, Taiwan, Malaysia and even China!
Love the way u enjoy life, you can be happy n funky even u're getting old (not so old yet!) :P
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend :P

What's a horniday? Sounds like something we'd like to have, too! Great photos of "old" people -- the lady with the cowboy hat on the far right looked hot!

ReplyDeleteSeriously, my bad. I should have posted up a notice or something about downloading Smiley Central. Please uninstall Smiley Central toolbar. It's not good for your PC's health.
There is a much better way to post smiley on your post. Follow this thread in a local forum. LcF showed a much better way. See the useful informations @ Recovery Smiley in a post!
Another greetings and lotta loves from Malaysia.
Hi Jose,
ReplyDeleteyup, great sessions. hehe....
Happy weekend!

What's this Tuesdays with Morrie? I think I should go read it too. :)
Happy weekend!
arahman7,

Healthy life is Happy life.

You make growing old look like FUN and HAPPY!!!! I LOVE the last photo!!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha.. the last photo made very laughed nonstop. Is she really without teeth or just a makeup? Beautiful shots for the theme. Happy weekend! http://crizlai.blogspot.com/2007/08/photo-hunters-happy.html
ReplyDeleteP/s: Take more Gingko Bibola.. good for memory :P
che-cheh,
ReplyDeleteGood Health is indeed important. Without it, many things are impossible.
Katya,
ReplyDeleteGrowing old should be fun and happy! There's no way one's going to revert to their youth, so might as well have a good time. :)
Crizlai,
ReplyDeletekekeke... the toothless part is cosmetic. I had fun taking the picture too. Thanks for recommending Gingko Bibola, I'll try that.
Those are all wonderful happy photos! I don't think growing old is necessarily bad, if you grow old together with the one you love.
ReplyDeleteMy happy photos.
dragonheart,
ReplyDeleteYes, it would be much better to grow old with my loved one. :)
Happy weekend!
That's really funny that you put pictures about getting old and having fun and I wrote about it lol !
ReplyDeleteMy photo hunting was on the other blog Keyhole pictures and showed my happy cats.
Gattina,
ReplyDeleteOh, but you wrote a good post on the theme. I want to be like you and your friends when I grow old, to still be active and happy. :)
those are great pictures!
ReplyDeleteI don't think you have to worry about getting old yet! Thanks for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeleteMama Bear
I feel a bit ashamed. this my first visit to your great blog.
ReplyDeleteDo not think about age - think about happiness - as you so well have presented here.
btw - In Norway we have a tradtion: Not one single x-mas cake - But 7. Yes we need to have seven different sorts - all dry.
You can find out more about Nordic x-mas trads here:
http://toraa.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
scroll down to see when we did the backery. It's allways fun and a great tradition. Did you know that in December - we see the Sun for only a couple of houres in Southern Norway, while in the North - they have no glimpse at the Sun - And during the Summer - Midnight Sun in the North - and here in the South: 3:40 am to 11:45 pm.
Sorry to hear about your perkiness, the only problem with older people though is they tend to smell a bit more of w@@e
ReplyDeleteCheers Mark
Well, growing old must mean doubled, or tripled or hundred of happiness wrinkles, won't it? *giggles*
ReplyDeletewhen i m old and start losing all my teeth.... i wanna have fun like them too.
ReplyDeletebut what i'm afraid of is, my shaky hands wont allow me to take nicey pix anymore. i need tripod!!
Uahh.. hot grandmas and hot grandpas.
ReplyDeletethe 3rd pic is funny hehehe
ReplyDelete知足常乐. Agree? :D
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!
Hi, happen to came to your blog. Nice blog. Like the picture of the 'old people' It's great to stay happy and look young.
ReplyDeleteha ha ha, oh that's not you at the last pic is it??
ReplyDeleteGreat photos for happy. That last one totally made me laugh out loud. So cute!
ReplyDeleteI hope I can even live up to that age in the first place!
ReplyDeleteAnd by the way, your dang-dang are still perky.. :D
Whenever I see these folks in their cowboy outfits, I'll ask; "hey where did you tie your horses?".
ReplyDeleteOk , ok ...I'm bad...but I can't help it , really.
the peranakan photo -- now, that's a really cool, happy one!
ReplyDeleteWho's that in the last pix? you?
ReplyDeleteYOU PO PO!? LOL!
I came across those senior citizen wearing cowboy lookalike doing their dance before too. Its really good to see them enjoying something that they love. Good activities for them :)

Great photos! Old?? Who you callin' old!
ReplyDeleteNice post and one which brings a smile to my face. Of course, I am not exactly old but as I approach the 40s, I can sense that the energy level and killer instincts in me are fast dissipating.... I read recently in a newspaper report somewhere that contrary to popular belief, older folks do have sex quite regularly too. Here we are talking about folks in their 50s to 70s.
ReplyDeleteCheers to the rollin' good times. Who says sex is only for teenagers?
Great photos, the last one made me smile! Hope all is well with your ankle.
ReplyDeleteuahhhaha! the third pic freaked me out!
ReplyDeleteNot old. Seasoned. ;)
