Today’s Blog Post


“How Old Would You Be If You Didn't Know How Old You Are?”
I just finished reading the story of Satchel Paige. Amazing! Simply Amazing. You can got to a Link below and read some it as well….

Satchel is credited with the Title of this Blog today…“How Old Would You Be If You Didn't Know How Old You Are?”

What an inspiring story it is!

He gave a list of "Rules for Staying Young"
Paige's rules originally appeared in the June 13, 1953 issue of Collier's. The version below is taken from his autobiography Maybe I'll Pitch Forever (as told to David Lipman, 1962):

1. "Avoid fried meats which angry up the blood."
2. "If your stomach disputes you, lie down and pacify it with cool thoughts."
3. "Keep the juices flowing by jangling around gently as you move."
4. "Go very light on the vices, such as carrying on in society—the social ramble ain't restful."
5. "Avoid running at all times."
6. "And don't look back—something might be gaining on you."

This is all from a man that came from No Where to become a legend in his time.

I offer it quickly today and point to this remarkable man.

By the way……“How Old Would You Be If You Didn't Know How Old You Are?”
