Anti-aging - The Amazing New Drive To Stay Alive Campaign
Anti-aging programs cover many topics but what you’re about to read is news to me. Drive to Stay Alive campaigns are usually focussed on the young. This one targets the Young at 60. There are three good reasons why you should Drive to Stay Alive .1. Driving Helps You Stay Young at Heart By Maintaining Independent Mobility. You should be ready to defend yourself against members of family who advise you to give up driving because it’s supposedly not safe for you any more.
The truth in this matter is often times, even in my own family, the reason for this advice is that the younger ones want your car. One of the saddest days of my life was when my younger brother talked my 70 year old Mum into giving up driving because he had a work mate who needed a car.
Mum paid a heavy price. She could no longer drive herself to Church, or shopping, or to visit friends. She lost her independent mobility. My sincere hope is you will not lose yours. Hang on to your independent mobility and keep driving as long as you can. This is one of the most effective ways to maintain your own anti-aging program.
2. Driving Helps Your Anti-aging Program By Enabling You To Help Others. In our city we have a Meals on Wheels service. Some of the volunteer deliverers are 85 plus and they are meeting the needs of men and women many years younger than them.
There is a common view they stay younger because they keep a sense of being able to help others. Helping others by delivering their meals is an important task and the benefit volunteers get from their unpaid work shows in the shine on their faces. They shine because they are hanging on to their real feeling of still belonging to their community.
You can boost your anti-aging program by using your car and your ability to drive to assist others in your community. You could even do this whilst getting paid. In our neighborhood we encourage the folks who deliver the advertising flyers ( they are in their late 70’s) because we appreciate their efforts in more ways than one.
They are giving us the store specials of the coming week. We look checking those out. As they load up their wagon with flyers each week they are getting the basic mental and physical exercise necessary to keep themselves out of a nursing home. That’s good for them as individuals and for us as taxpayers as they are helping keep public health costs down.
3. Driving Helps You Hold a Higher Level of Self-Image. Your ability to drive, probably without you realizing, makes you feel better about yourself. Your have total control over the timing of many of the events in your daily routine. You can leave when you please. You’re not beholden to anyone.
You can get in your car and go to the store any time you want. When family call you up you can go over and help them with the kids at a moment’s notice. You feel good about yourself.
Your ability to drive your own car is necessary for you to maintain a higher level of self-image. Without it, according to the community standards with which you’ve grown up, you’re a disadvantaged member of the community.
Next time anyone tries to rob you of your ability to drive please consider the three Helps that driving gives you. It Helps You Stay Young at Heart By Maintaining Independent Mobility, It Helps Your Anti-aging Program By Enabling You To Help Others and , It Helps You Hold a Higher Level of Self-Image. These helps are worth fighting for.
You will now be able to Drive to Stay Alive. You will also view driving as on of the most important parts of your personal anti-aging program.
