Longetivity

Span of life  does not  depend on good health,
Nor  material comforts , poverty  and wealth
Vegetarian  diet, fruits as normal food,
Exercise, yoga may do much good.

Laughter as a  means enables to live long,
Singing   and dancing   does make One  strong,
How do some  enjoy exceptioal  long life span,
Science nor medicines have no recipe or  fixed plan.

Neglecting  signs of illness life is at stake
Incurable diseases  alerts  us  to be
awake,
Certain herbal  concoctions seem to play a role,
Spirituality , faith   for long life touted as the goal.

Alcohol ,drugs  assure temporary  relief,
Material ,mental happiness for long life illusive belief,
Daily exercise ,control diet  appears right
Tensions ,anxieties  fight to  keep out of sight.

100 plus , beyond not related  to genes
Neither anchored to any material, spritual means
What enhances life  worthy  to live
Depends on magnamity,  generosity to give

Long life is active   not   confined to space,
Happy long life  must enable normal routine to face,
Attitude to accept  ups and downs
 to embrace,
Enables to win  life's long  race with grace.

Long  ,healthy life matters the most,
If independent of dependence  on host,
A vegetative long life makes absolute no sense
A normal  active life on feet is the essence.

Social life is the key  to longer life  span
Independent of  race, climate, sex, woman or man
Social relations ,generosity ,uplifts spirit of  mankind,
Social integration with all  is the nourishment , success behind.

Going out of your way to help just anyone in need
Enhances long, healthy  happy life indeed
Greet and speak daily  , lavishly with every one  you meet
To keep smiling standing on your feet

Selfish , comfortable life  you live in vain
Commitment to  social life ,be   certain you live again
Be humble  and sincere ,  avoid ego and pride
The proven secret for  happy long life to ride

Many a Japanese nationals seem to  live  very long
Mystics in Himalayas,  some Indians  too ride along
Prosperous rich Nations do not make the grade
Neither climate, diet ,ecercise, prayers can trade
