Vincent was born in 1914 and is now 109 years old. He shares some advice for a healthy, long life.
First, spend time doing what you love. Vincent worked as a firefighter for over 80 years. He met so many friends at the fire department (消防部门) . He enjoyed his time there very much. “After my grandmother died, he would go to the fire house every day. They would sit there and talk,” his granddaughter Erica said.
Second, drink milk and enjoy what you eat. Vincent worked for a farm when he was 15. So he could drink as much milk as he wanted. He thought it was good for his health. Now he still drinks milk every morning. But Vincent was never careful about his diet (日常饮食). He has eaten whatever he wants. He loves hamburgers, salads, chocolate and other sweets. He drinks a cup of coffee every day. And sometimes he has a beer. But he’s always been fit.
Third, you don’t need to exercise, but keep moving. Vincent never went to the gym. He never went for a run to exercise. But he stayed active. He joined the fire department when he was 21 years old. And that’s the exercise he got every day—answered the fire alarms. He laughs at people who jog. He says, “Where are they running to?”
Finally, stay positive (积极的). Vincent always thinks about what is good in a situation. He never thinks any other way when something’s wrong. He always thinks he’s doing fine, and everything is just going to be fine.
