The Secret of A Long Life
The Secret of A Long Life
Grygori
Pilikian recently celebrated his 114th birthday and reporters visited him in
his mountain village in Georgia to find out the secret of a long life. “The
secret of a long life,” Grygori said, “is happiness. If you are happy, you will
live a long time.” “Are you married?” a reporter asked. “Yes,” Grygori replied.
“I married my third wife when I was 102. If you are happily married, you will
live forever. But for my third wife, I should have died years ago.” “What about
smoking and drinking?” a reporter asked. “Yes, they are important,” Grygori
said. “Don't smoke at all and you will feel well. Drink two glasses of wine a
day and you will be healthy and happy.” “If you could live your life again,
what would you do?” a reporter asked. “I would do what I have done. If I had
had more sense, I would have eaten more yoghourt” he chuckled. “Supposing you
could change one thing in your life what would you change?” another reporter
asked. “Not much,” Grygori replied. “So you don't have any regrets?” “Yes, I
have one regret,” Grygori replied. “If I had known I was going to live so long,
I would have looked after myself better!”
