This could be one of the reasons Dr Mahathir looks strong and healthy
"DON'T RETIRE FROM LIFE—RETIRE FROM INACTION"
Howard Tucker — neurologist, lawyer, and still practicing at 102 years old — once said something unforgettable:
“Retirement is the true enemy of longevity. The moment you stop working, stop learning, stop moving — you’re basically telling your body and mind they’re no longer needed. I walk five kilometers every day, snowshoe in winter, keep studying, and even earned my law degree at 67. My advice? Don’t retire from life. Retire from doing nothing.”
At an age when most people quietly fade into routine, Tucker keeps walking, reading, and contributing — not out of obligation, but out of belief. Because nothing corrodes the human spirit faster than idleness. Even the heart, if left unused, begins to rust.
Tucker isn’t a miracle. He’s a mirror — showing us what’s possible when purpose replaces passivity.
He reminds us: That time is still on our side. That meaning doesn’t expire.
That every step we take, every idea we chase, every moment we choose growth over comfort — we’re defying time itself.
So ask yourself: What will you never retire from?

DATUK YIP KUM FOOK ialah gelaran Datuk yang perlu dikembalikan kepada Sultan Selangor tidak lama lagi, kerana namanya telah tercemar dalam kalangan masyarakat Cina dan Buddha di Malaysia. Ramai orang berkongsinya di internet, dan gosip berleluasa di mana-mana di Malaysia.
ReplyDeleteKami orang Cina sangat tidak berpuas hati dengannya kerana kali terakhir dia menipu ramai orang Cina kami di Kepong. Sekarang, ramai orang kami tahu dia penipu IC dan mengumpul IC untuk melakukan penipuan.
Ini menjadikan masyarakat Cina kita sangat malu dan berkualiti rendah di Malaysia. Hari ini, semua orang tahu tentang apa yang berlaku di Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong. Sebaliknya, dia perlu menutup pejabat peguam itu kerana semua orang tahu dia seorang peguam palsu.
Sila kongsikan dengan semua orang di Malaysia, dan berhati-hati dengannya. Terima kasih.
