Regina Brett's 45 life lessons.

Regina Brett:
To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me.

It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolls over to 50 this week, so here's an update:

“Get over it” attitude.

Get over - преодолевать, пережить, оправиться.
‘I got over it. One of the reasons I like Prince Philip is his “Get over it” attitude. If you make a mistake, you can’t dwell on it. Everybody has miserable things happen to them. Of course you cry and feel betrayed. But then the next week you go on to something else. I was stupid in both those cases. With one I had the excuse of being l8 – and he was a matinee idol – but with the other I was 50, so I should have known better. But I was the best at moving on. I majored in it. I know that sounds flippant, but it isn’t. It’s what life is. I was never that worried about anything. If I get angry, I’m over it very fast because life’s too short to carry grievances.’

Rose Hilton: Look who's painting now | Life and style | The Guardian: "Rose Hilton's strict Christian parents weren't keen on her becoming an artist. But the person who actually stopped her painting was her husband – a prominent artist himself. Now nearly 80, she has finally answered her calling"

Вы должны быть чрезвычайно позитивной.

"Жизнь несется с бешеной скоростью, так наслаждайтесь каждой ее минутой.
Вы должны быть чрезвычайно позитивной.
Я подпрыгиваю с кровати, делаю кофе, и я готова к работе.
Я читаю газеты, открываю окна, разговариваю по телефону и проверяю свою электронную почту.
И я стараюсь выйти из дома и делаю некоторые покупки."
Джоан Коллинз говорит, что чувствует себя свою жизнь наполненной и до сих пор не теряет интерес к жизни.
"Для меня стакан всегда наполовину полон. У меня есть очень детское ожидание жизни. Я полагаю, что я родилась со счастливой геном - честно!"
Коллинз, Джоан (род. 23 мая 1933) - английская актриса, обладательница премии "Золотой глобус" за свою самую знаменитую роль-Алексис Колби в телесериале «Династия».
Её пятым мужем в 2002 году стал театральный менеджер Перси Гибсон, который младше Джоан на 32 года. На вопрос о том, не смущает ли её разница в возрасте, актриса пошутила: "Если он умрёт-значит, умрёт".

So what has Mrs Percy Gibson (Joan Collins) learned about life? ‘That it goes along so fast you’d better make every second count. You have to be extremely positive. I bounce out of bed, make the coffee and I’m ready to go. I have to read the papers, open the windows, talk on the phone and check my emails. And I try to get out and do a bit of shopping.’ She says she feels totally fulfilled and is still excited about life. ‘To me the glass is always half-full. I have a very childlike expectation of life. I believe I was born with a happy gene – I really do.’

A Poem by Charlie Chaplin.

As I Began To Love Myself

As I began to love myself
I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs
that I was living against my own truth.
Today, I know, this is “AUTHENTICITY”.

Needs sunny situation.

Sarah says it was liberating to lose everything and have to begin again. All that clutter and pretension was swept away. "I like our dining-table made out of scaffold boards," she says. "I love having very little." The austerity of their present house represents a deliberate break with every aspect of their carpeted, over-stuffed bourgeois past. The dreamy lushness of the garden beyond, where everything grows to twice its expected size in the rich soil, is like another world.

Needs sunny situation - Telegraph: "you feel Sarah knows Monty better than he knows himself"

Lessons in life from the over-sixties.

The pearl: “Choosing to live in another country means accepting the rules in place there. Assimilate yourself first. Changing their world can wait until another day.”
Выбор жить в другой стране означает принятие местных правил. Интегрируйте себя в первую очередь. Изменение их мира может подождать до следующего дня.
лат. assimilatio - слияние, уподобление, усвоение.
