Hi friend, how are you?
Do you know any “dynamic duo’s”? I came across a duo like that today
They were a mother / daughter team
Mom was in her mid / late 70s
Daughter was 50sh give or take
And they were funny / funny / funny…. Did I mention how funny there were? 😁
Mom tripped over some stuff last week and the daughter was talking ( more like making fun of her ) about not falling down today……
That started our little chat, and a fun one it was, those 2 should be doing stand up shows..
I shared with them what they are doing over in Singapore
In Singapore they’re teaching people starting at the age of 50, yes 50, not 60, not 70 but 50, how to fall down…. The premise is if they learn fall and recover techniques now they will be better with it later in life… How they do this is with small simple ParKour courses
Not the ones you see on Red Bull commercials with some guys jumping sky scraper to sky scraper from a helicopter over sharks……
No, these are simple ones made to teach people how to fall, roll, and recover
I’m still trying to get my mind around the start at 50 part
The fall is only a part of that experience, recovery is the other
In life we sometimes get chances to recover from our mistakes
Sometimes the fall can end us, but what if we make better choices early and do things to avoid downfalls, or setbacks in life?
I have sayings, a few different ones that I live by
One of them is this::
“I may not always know what I want to be when I grow up, but I’ve always known what I don’t want to be”
Invest wisely, live charitably and be well
