Hardly anyone posts on our ‘jokes for the caregiver’ thread anymore.
I find value in comic relief and enjoy a quirky sense of humor!
Please share your favorite humorous ‘senior’ quotes. All other quotes are welcome too, something meaningful or inspirational for all of us to read.

Say nothing
Think of the flowers you plant
In the garden each year

And keep moving forward
This will free you
