92 Today

Mom is 92 today, and so far, knock on wood, it appears to be a better day, than she's had for awhile. She is more alert, less choking spells, and even her color looks good, for a change. I wonder, does enjoying such milestones, add to one's health?

Kind of makes me wonder about how our minds work, and how they impact our health?

Maybe there is something to all this 'positive thinking' stuff, and also to one's own determination. She is a tough bird, has survived a lot, and I wonder, just how much that plays in her being able to function today, 92 years strong?

Kind of makes me wonder, about myself, if maybe my life could be better, longer, if I adjusted my own thinking a bit, and controlled the stress more, ate less, smoked less, and just, well started enjoying what I can, and not worrying about what I have no control over?

Interesting thinking, for the day. Now too, need to see about a cake for after dinner, as it is special.
