and what is on offer to have and enjoy.

Admire what you see: butterflies in a park,

birds flying above, the new facilities, local flora

and fauna. This latter sometimes are a pest

in their own neighbourhood. Don't comment

on the negatives, just look at the positive!

Become aware of this new philosophy. Bring joy

to you, love what you decide for each new day,

remain flexible and let the weather, the climate

influence your daily needs, passions and activity.

Put yourself first, then friends and family. Let

the rest of the environment be there for your

pleasure, in a hedonist world, among the followers

of spirituality. These claim to bring on new energy,

renewed force into our being, reclaim faith

in the universe, so that we find pleasure and love.

Fly like Peter Pan in joyful optimism and fun!

Let it be so because now I have reached my Third

Age when the world's trickery is here for me to see!

Yet I must still continue to deal with it! But now it's

different for me! My life's baton I pass onto Thee!
