I fully agree, but admit to finding it difficult to practice.

Agree possibly for living longer. But for me, living happier is more important. I'd be very unhappy if I were to cut what I eat in half. To me food is love & happiness. Walking, sure it is healthy, but I'm so busy that given the opportuntiy to nap, I'd much rather relax than walk double. Laugh triple - yeah, sure, why not ? Sounds good. Love without measure - not sure what without measure means. Just love without considering who you are putting your love , tiime and effort to ? Love without considering who it is you're loving and if they are worthy of your love or not - just love blindly ? I disagree.

Very wise indeed.

I do agree, yet it would be easier said than done.

Things that are worthwhile aren't always easy.

I woke up this morning determined to eat less and exercise more...like I do so many other mornings.

Laughing is easy.

But it often backfires.

Like alcohol and drugs.

ITA. Very well said.

I think the walkiing isn't just about exercise here. I think in this saying it is also about meditation. Awareness. Being present.

Yes, good basic wisdom. I’ve often said that as I’ve aged I eat half as much and exercise twice as much to maintain the same weight. I remember reading that watching sitcoms or something that makes you laugh can be healing. Love is the highest form of energy, good for the body, so that’s a great place to be mentally. It’s hard to maintain though. Nice proverb.

So true, except I can't do it!

"Eat half."

Easy! I eat half the pint of ice cream, half the lasagna, half the cake...
