| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Happiness podcast. I'm Dr. Robert Puff. One of the great joys of life for me is |
| 0:13.5 | meeting and getting to know people who have lived a rich and full life and lived it well. I bet if I asked you right now to pause listening to |
| 0:23.1 | this podcast and think about someone in your life who have you met, who have you known, |
| 0:29.1 | who towards the end of the life was living well. I don't mean riches. I don't mean success, |
| 0:35.3 | but I mean in their heart. They were young at heart, they were vibrant, |
| 0:39.5 | and they were joyful. I think we all know people like this. When I decided to do this podcast |
| 0:45.7 | on The Art of Staying Young while Growing Old, I started thinking about the people that I've known |
| 0:51.9 | in life who have truly lived their life well, and towards |
| 0:56.5 | the end of their life, were just shining. There's a monastery in the United States in New Mexico |

| 1:29.3 | Well, as I got to know him and spend time with him, I learned more about him. |
| 1:33.3 | At the time I met him, he was in his 80s, and the last time I saw him, he was 91 years old. |
| 1:38.3 | He had his PhD, and his job at the monastery was to be the librarian. |
| 1:43.3 | He kept track of all the books and made sure they were in |
| 1:45.8 | order. But though he was 91 years old the last time I met him, he had such a beautiful, youthful, |
| 1:53.0 | vibrant soul. It was just amazing to know him. And as I said, we became fast friends. And maybe because |
| 2:00.8 | I'm a psychologist and he knew that, |
| 2:03.3 | he enjoyed talking to me about his life and what happened during his life. And he had many |
