ICE in your Mobile Phone
Wednesday, March 14th, 2007ICE in your Mobile Phone…Is a very simple and important method of contact for you or a loved one in case of an emergency…As cell phones are carried by the majority of the population…All you need to do is enter the number of a contact person or persons…And store the name as…ICE…
ICE was thought up by a Cambridge Paramedic who found that when they went to
the scenes of accidents…There were always mobile phones with patients…But they
didn’t know which numbers to call…He therefore thought that it would be
a good idea if there was an internationally recognized name to file Next of
Kin…ICE…
Following a disaster in London…The Ambulance Service launched a national…In Case of Emergency…ICE campaign…The idea is that you store the word ICE in your mobile phone address book and with it enter the number of the person you want to be contacted…In Case of Emergency…
In an emergency situation…Emergency services personnel and hospital staff would then be able to quickly contact your next of kin…By simply dialling the number entered under…ICE…
Everybody needs to know about this…It could save your life…Or put a loved one’s mind at rest…For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1…ICE2…ICE3…
Enter your ICE contact number in your mobile phone…TODAY…Then join ICE…It can save your life…
Please send…ICE in your Mobile Phone…TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS…

Live Your Life
Thursday, March 1st, 2007IF YOU DON’T READ THIS TO THE VERY END…YOU HAVE LOST A DAY IN YOUR LIFE AND WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED…DO AS I AM DOING AND SEND IT TO A FRIEND…
Views on Aging…
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we’re kids?…If you’re less than 10 years old…You’re so excited about aging that you think in fractions…”How old are you?”…”I’m four and a half”…You’re never thirty six and a half…You’re four and a half…Going on five…That’s the key…
You get into your teens…Now they can’t hold you back…You jump to the next number…Or even a few ahead…”How old are you?”…”I’m gonna be 16″…You could be 13, but hey, you’re gonna be 16…And then the greatest day of your life…You
become 21…Even the words sound like a ceremony…YOU BECOME 21…YESSSS!!!
But then you turn 30…Oooohh…What happened there?…Makes you sound like bad milk…He TURNED…We had to throw him out…There’s no fun now…You’re just a sour dumpling…What’s wrong?…What’s changed?
You BECOME 21…You TURN 30…Then you’re PUSHING 40…Whoa…Put on the brakes…It’s all slipping away…Before you know it…You REACH 50…And your dreams are gone…But wait…You MAKE it to 60…You didn’t think you would!
So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60…
You’ve built up so much speed that you HIT 70…After that it’s a day-by-day thing…You HIT Wednesday!
You get into your 80s and every day is a complete cycle…You HIT lunch…You TURN 4:30…You REACH bedtime…And it doesn’t end there…Into the 90s…You start going backwards…”I Was JUST 92.”
Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100…You become a little kid again…”I’m 100 and a half!”
May you ALL make it to a healthy 100 and a half!
HOW TO STAY YOUNG…
1. Throw out non essential numbers…This includes age, weight and height… Let the doctors worry about them…
2. Keep only cheerful friends…The moaners and groaners pull you down…
3. Keep learning…Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever…Never let the brain be idle…”An idle mind is the devil’s workshop”…And the devil’s name is Alzheimer’s…
4. Enjoy the simple things…
5. Laugh often, long and loud…Laugh until you gasp for breath…
6. The tears happen…Endure, grieve, and move on…The only person, who is with us our entire life…Is ourselves…BE ALIVE…While you are alive…
7. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it’s family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever…Your home is your refuge…
8. Cherish your health…If it is good, preserve it…If it is unstable, improve it…If it is beyond what you can improve, get help…
9. Don’t take guilt trips…Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county…To a foreign country…But NOT to where the guilt is…
10. Tell the people you love that…YOU LOVE THEM…At every opportunity…
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER…
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take…But by the moments that take our breath away…And if you don’t send this to at least 10 friends…Who cares?…But do share this with someone…We all need to live life to its fullest…Each and every day…
LIVE YOUR LIFE…
