Top Ten Qualities of People Who Live a Long Life

colorful image over which is written 'love' 'sense of play' 'honesty'

This list made me happy. I found the qualities - with a bit about each - at Associated Content, attributed to Nichole Beck. I thought today, the day before those of us living in the United States celebrate Thanksgiving, would be a good day to consider such qualities.

Top Ten Qualities of People Who Live a Long Life:

  • Honesty
  • Selflessness
  • Passion
  • Hard Working
  • Close with Family
  • Love
  • Humor
  • Humility
  • Dignity in Face of Adversity
  • Sense of Play

Food for thought! Maybe you'd like to add your own quality to the list?

Interesting list. Do you think I have any of these? Sometimes self evaluation is less than objective. As you know, I plan to live 100 years. Might help to have the qualities which promote longevity!

Dad, I guess you'll be around for a while since I'd say you have all of these in varying degrees! Better keep taking good care of yourself!
