The other day, I met a patient in the hospital who left a lasting impression on me. He was in his 90s, looking remarkably well, and carried with him a wonderful sense of humor. When I asked him how he managed to stay so witty, he smiled and said:
“I only have two things going for me: humor and food.”
We both laughed hard at his answer, but later, I found myself reflecting on it. Here was a man who once lived a full, high-functioning life, now distilling his joy into two simple things, laughter and good meals.
It reminded me how, at the end of the day, life often comes down to the small pleasures we sometimes overlook. For him, it was humor and food. For others, it may be family, music, faith, or a daily walk in the sun.
So I ask you: what keeps you going at this stage of your life?
Keep moving forward, find joy in the little things, and God bless.
