Cheer Up by Joe Barnett

Being cheerful keeps you healthy.  Proverbs 17:22

In an analysis of 229,391 participants, Cardiologist Dr. Allan Rozanski and colleagues found that optimists were much less likely to have a heart attack than pessimists and had a lower mortality rate from any cause.          Health columnist Jane Brody suggests assessing your level of optimism based on how strongly you agree with these statements:                                  In uncertain times, I usually expect the best.                                                              I’m always optimistic about my future.                                                                        Overall, I expect more good things to happen than bad.                                        She suggests assessing your degree of pessimism by how you identify with these statements:                                                                                                          I hardly ever expect things to go my way.                                                                      I rarely count on good things happening to me.                                                      If something can go wrong for me, it will.                                                                    “Being cheerful keeps you healthy.  It is slow death to be gloomy all the time” (Proverbs 17:22).                                                                                                        Optimism is contagious.  Be a carrier.

News from Margaret!

The Gulf Coast Care Center is now prohibiting visitors from accessing the facility. This practice is a preventive measure to safeguard the residents from the coronavirus.

Unfortunately, it affects our member, Margaret Winters.                                   We encourage you to send cards and to phone her.                                     When you call, allow for two rings, then hang-up, and call again.

Phone:  409-744-5114.  Your call will certainly lift Margaret’s spirit to hear from you.
