I caught a really interesting piece on the news today – a 93 year old retired surgeon who still assists in surgeries at Loma Linda Hospital in California was shown in the operating room and also outside talking about his longevity. He was actually very attractive, full, and straight, with no waver in his voice, and was speaking like a passionate college professor as he said in answer to a question about his longevity “…You have to be stimulated. I feel stimulated in the operating room. There’s a certain amount of adrenaline of course, that I think it has something to do with it. ”

Wow! We need more elders like this! “Stimulation”, I like that word he used. You can think about what you love or what you have a passion for or what your bliss is. But thinking about what stimulates you is so tangible, because you can probably remember very easily when you felt that adrenaline rush, that mental excitement, that joyful feeling that makes your whole being sing!

What stimulates you?
