Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good Following is wise advice written by Regina Brett, a 90 year-old woman. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good. Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. When in doubt, just take the next small step. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch. Pay off your credit cards

Make peace with your past so it won’t mess up the present. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn’t be in it. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don’t worry; God never blinks. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful. Whatever doesn’t kill you really does make you stronger. It’s never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and

every month. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree. Cry with someone. It’s more healing than crying alone. It’s okay to get angry with God. He can take it. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

no one else. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don’t take no for an answer. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special. Over prepare, then go with the flow. Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple. No one is in charge of your happiness but you. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ‘In five years, will this matter?” Always choose life.

Forgive everyone everything. What other people think of you is none of your business. Time heals almost everything. Give time time. However good or bad a situation is, it will change. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does. Believe in miracles. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do. Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now. Your children get only one childhood.

Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we'd grab ours back. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.

Decades ago, retirement was fairly predictable: Social Security and a pension provided much of your income, you moved to the Sun Belt, played tennis or golf, and you lived to age 70 or 75. To varying degrees, this was the American retirement experience during the last few decades of the previous century. Those days are gone; retirees must now assume greater degrees of financial selfreliance. There is no private-pension safety net today. At one time, when Social

John R. Coble III Coble Wealth Management

Security was paired with a pension from a lifelong employer, a retiree could potentially enjoy a middleclass lifestyle. In January, the average monthly Social Security benefit was $1,341. The highest possible monthly benefit for someone retiring at Social Security’s full retirement

age in 2016 is $2,787.80, or $33,453.60 a year. So in many areas of this country, living only on Social Security does not afford you the same lifestyle you may have had when you were working. Elders who thought they could rely on Social Security to get by have learned a bitter truth, one we should note. We must supplement Social Security with other income streams or sources. We carry more debt than our parents and grandparents did. It is much easier to borrow money (and live on margin) than it was decades ago. Some people face the prospect of retiring with outstanding student loans, car loans, and business loans, in addition to home loans. Some of us are retiring unmarried. With the divorce rate being where it is, some baby boomers will retire alone. Perhaps they will

share a residence with a sibling, child, or friends; that may give them something of an economic cushion in terms of meeting daily living costs. Then again, some married households were singleincome households in the 1970s and 1980s, but retirees managed. We will probably live longer than our parents did. In 1985, the average life expectancy for a 65-yearold man in this country was 79; the average life expectancy for a 65-yearold woman was 84. Today, the average 65-year-old man is projected to live to 91, the average 65-year-old woman to 94. Our parents could depend on the combination of Social Security, pension income, and fixedincome vehicles for a 10year or 15-year retirement. In contrast, many of us will have to try some growth investing to keep our

money growing across a probable 20-year or 30year retirement. We will likely have to insure ourselves if we retire before age 65. The national average retirement age (according to a SmartAsset study of Census Bureau data) is now 63. With private health insurance becoming the new normal, that means many of us will have to find some kind of private health coverage if we retire too young to be eligible for Medicare. Furthermore, the cost of many out-of-pocket medical expenses not covered by Medicare is certainly greater than it once was. We must rise to the financial challenge retirement presents. During the 1980s, more than 40% of U.S. private sector employees participated in a pension plan designed to bring them eventual retirement income. In the middle of that decade, Social Security accounted for 65% of U.S. retiree income. Right now, 19% of private firms offer traditional pension plan programs and Social Security represents but 27% of retiree income. Our retirement will differ from that of our parents. It will likely be longer and arguably feature a better quality of life. Every aspect of our later years may become more comfortable, more bearable for ourselves and our loved ones. Retirement planning is one of the most valuable tools to assist you in realizing that goal.

St. Patrick’s Day facts and figures St. Patrick's Day is enjoyed by millions of people, including those of Irish descent and even those with no connection to Ireland. A day of celebration, music and parades, St. Patrick's Day also has a unique history. The following are some interesting facts and figures about St. Patrick's Day that might help explain its popularity.

* St. Patrick's Day is annually celebrated on March 17, which means the holiday falls during the Christian season of Lent, when many practicing Christians abstain from eating meat. However, these Lenten prohibitions of meat are typically lifted on St. Patrick's Day, when celebrants are allowed to indulge in traditional Irish

meals which may include Irish bacon. * St. Patrick is not actually of Irish descent. Born in the fifth century, St. Patrick was born in Roman Britain and only brought to Ireland as a slave when he was a teenager. He would eventually escape from captivity, but later he returned to Ireland and is credited with bringing Christianity to the Irish people upon his return. * People in Ireland have been celebrating the feast day of St. Patrick on March 17 since sometime during the ninth or tenth century. The feast day is celebrated on March 17 because St. Patrick is believed to have died on March 17, 461. * Though the Irish have been celebrating the feast

day of St. Patrick for centuries, the first St. Patrick's Day parade took place in the United States and not in Ireland. In 1762, Irish soldiers serving in the English military marched through New York City on March 17 in commemoration of St. Patrick. Despite those humble beginnings, today the New York City St. Patrick's Day Parade is the largest parade in the United States, with more than 150,000 participants. * Nearly 35 million U.S. residents claim Irish ancestry. That number is seven times the population of Ireland. Twenty-three percent of Massachusetts residents trace their ancestry to Ireland.

The fate of a bowed head While driving through town the other day, I saw so many people walking along bobbing their heads to the silent tune that was most likely blaring in their ears. Earphones in place and in a world of their own, these folks just had no idea what was beyond the rhythm that escorted them down the sidewalk. People have become distracted on a major scale. Have you

noticed that even when you go out to your favorite restaurant and sometimes at your own dinner table, just about everyone has their heads down with their attention on their timeline or the most current tweet? Then it dawned on me that we have stumbled into a type of worship. At a recent bible study that I attended, we talked at our round table that as children we were

taught to bow our heads when we prayed. I remember prayer time growing up and would find every opportunity to raise my head and open my eyes to see what was happening. That tells me two things; my head was bowed and my eyes were shut to keep my focus on speaking to God from my heart and listen to who was leading our prayers. Young people today have their eyes glued to their

phone, their heads bowed and their hearing totally dedicated to a stream of audible clamor. Today, everywhere I look, the heads of our children are bowed, but not to the Almighty God. Satan is so crafty and even innovative at times. Our children are bowing to social media, messaging and preoccupied with what’s going on with their phones and it is a subtle act of worship. Subtle but perpetual. With our teens at home, if they are not put in check, they will begin from the time they wake up until they are asleep at the end of the day. It’s almost a life line to our young people and a

very dangerous practice. This is why is vitally necessary to teach your children and for parents to be the example of proper worship to God. Regardless of whether you and your family are believers or not, I guarantee you that one day one of your children will have to cry out God’s name for help. It’s funny how we know who to call on in our time of need, but we total ignore Him while things are going good? Don’t allow the “Trickster” to pull you into worship without you knowing about it. There is nothing and no one more worthy than God Who deserves all of our attention and worship. From now on, let’s pay attention to what we spend most of our time doing. St. John 4:23-24 reads “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Until next time.... (C) LBW 3/16/16

This joke’s on you Despite its popularity, April Fool’s Day is not a national holiday. Popular since the 19th century, April Fool’s Day is celebrated by pranksters in Canada, Australia, Brazil, the United States, and parts of Europe. References to April Fool’s Day can be traced back to as early as the 1500s, but information on its origins is vague and infrequent. The beginnings of April Fool’s day remain something of a mystery, but many throughout history have offered their takes on the holiday for hoaxers. One of the more popular theories suggests that April Fool’s Day sprung up after the French calendar reform in 1564. France moved the start of the year from the end of March to January 1, and those who continued to celebrate the new year in March were the victims of pranks. Pranksters stuck paper fish to the backs of unwitting victims. To this day, Poisson d’Avril, or April Fish, is the term used for April Fool’s Day in France. Other cultures celebrated the new year on or around April 1, including many Romans and Hindus. The timing coincided with the vernal equinox. Spring often heralded the start of the new year. Some have linked April Fool’s Day to the notion of “spring fever.” There may be something about changing from winter to spring to serve as the catalyst of festive, lighthearted celebrations. Today, people all around the world celebrate April Fool’s Day with silly pranks and attempts to convince people to believe in things that are truly ridiculous. Unless one wants to be the victim of a prank, he or she should take things said and done on April 1 with a grain of salt. Nothing is what it seems on April Fool’s Day, and that’s part of the fun of it. TF154102
