What SilverhairsClub means to me.

I was first introduced to SHC by a dear church friend Pheng Sok in March 2007. The first event attended was at the Botanic Garden where the Singapore Chinese Orchestra performed.

I get to meet lot of friend during this visit, like Maria, Lina Tan, Joy and many others. Friend who has been with me till today. To mention them would fill a full page! From then on, it’s the event at Batam, where new friend like Lily, Dolly, Yew Kwong, Tim and Terence I get to meet. I must say that I certainly feel very comfortable with this group of friend. There was lot of fun and laughter. Friend whom I could talk to without putting up a guard.

After this experience of meeting all of them, I begin to look forward to new event to attend. But new events are not forthcoming. I then decide that I should try to organize them and get member to attend. That where I try to organize the Cruise trip to Redang and Kuala Lumpur, bus response was poor. In the course of time I get to meet more new friend like Lina Ng, John Howe, Boon Liang, Eliza, Ah nee, Susan Chan, Susan Chang, Chian Wah and Jessie Teo and Caroline Gee..

Not a person to give up easily, I decide to introduce badminton, dancing and bowling to the club.. These are the activities I enjoy thoroughly and why not get other who are like-minded to join in. More friend I get to meet are, Ronald Wie, Rene, KK Loh, Bira, Peng Peng, Wee Chin, Nor, Marg Tian, Alfred, Alice Seah and Eileen lee.

I must say that I do find satisfaction here in meeting new friend through the various activities, I realized that life can begin at forty-five and there so much to look forward to. There are so many things to share, which would fill pages and pages here. I am sure many other members here felt the same way and I look forward to your sharing with us.

What is the recipe for staying alive after retirement!

Someone sent me an extract from our MM LKY on the abovementioned subject. How true it is  that when we feels that at 55 and more we can relax and do nothing, that is the greatest mistake we will have made in our life!

The human being is a social animal. We need to work, to socialise, to be involve in some form of activities. We need stimuli, we need to meet people, to catch up with the world, if we isolate ourselves we are done for!

When we are younger, doing a cross-country run is no issue, swimming ten to twenty laps is no ptoblem! As we grow older, it quite a different story. We move slower, we lack stamina, we suffer muscle cramps!

A Merry Heart doeth good like a medicine.

Yes, laughter is the best medicine.  I am amaze at the thought of how the human being is form.  It says that the Great Manufacturer have a great sense of humour.  Why is it that our nose is right on top on our face and not form near our buttock.

 Anyway, we are always attracted to a person who have a sense of humour.  A word of encouragement could lift up a sad countenance and give hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

So, if you have a good joke or an encouragement or enlightenment share with us. Never know you may lift up  a depressed soul!emoticon
