(PRESENT STOCK ONLY) r-f L';') • • I have just--returned—from the dentist and have been told in a forceful manner that I.must spend at least 10 minutes twice a day cleaning my teeth and bossing my gums. • "If you don.'t, you' will be wearing falsies before you retire," he said in a weak attempt at a joke. Not long--ago, had an annual physical examination and learned that the O'Keefe centre just above my belt, was reaching worrisome propOrtions. My doctor told me to get more exercise, at least , 30 minutes a day. Some years ago, a horse fell on my right ankle and broke it in three places. A metal pin holds one bone in place. At that time, the specialist in the case suggested that I should spend at least 10 minutes a day exercising that, ankle. I have mentioned before that my wife and I feel that an attempt at spirituality is necessary in this life. We made a decision more than 10 • years ago to spend at least half an hour a day in a serious attempt at meditation. We have kept that promise. Regular readers of this column are also aware that we keep horses around, our place. I love them. There is 'something about the outside of a horse that does wonders for the inside 'of a man. It is one of the few . pleasures I have in this vale of tears and it takes me another half an hour or so to feed my horses. Now, I am a night person. I rarely • function well until the sun is almost over the yardarm. I get to bed about midnight and arise groggily a few minutes before. eight in the morning. But 'I do find I need about eight hours sleep every night. I cannot function without that ' much sleep. - - I also enjoy , eating, a habit I picked up when very young and I find it difficult to break. It takes me half an hour for a hearty breakfast, half an hour for a light lunch and out-three-qtrart e r s-otan -hour- leisurely dinner. Writing, too, is something that must be done on a regular basis or rnsirdust-and-deca-Y-setin..-An-hour•a—• day is necessary to keep from getting rusty. In this country, one must 'be gainfully employed. So, -at least seven hours a day are spent on the job. Because we choose to live in the country, I spend one hour and 10' minutes, every day, driving to and from-work.- -• ----- Well, what you may ask, is . the purpose • of all this? A moment, • please ! I am losing hair at a great rate and have just been informed by a hair specialist that I will have to spend another 10'minutes a day in hair care unless I want to lose the rest of it, Suppose, just suppose, I'needed eye exercises or ear exercises. Suppose I had a few more problems with my health, as if I haven't enough already. , As a journalist, I must read one or two papers a day and, keep myself posted, on world, federal, provincial and local events. Now, total it all. I figure, if I follow the advice of the doctors and the specialists and the experts, I might 'have enough time left to spend 10 minutes with my daughter, 10• minutes with my wife and a few seconds with my dog. So I have decided to tell. all the experts and the special1sts to go suck eggs. I may die a physical wreck but who needs the body then? Who wants to be the healthiest corpse in the graveyard? I would rather die a physical , wreck and spend more time with a woman who has stuck with me through thick and thin for more than three decades and a daughter who is More beautiful than 'a spring sunrise with a voice :more tinkling than- a mountain brook. And a horse who flickers a welcome every time I go to the barn. And more time in prayer and meditation, too. spiritual —body- will be welcomed by Him Who taught us all to pray.
