Rita Moreno Attributes Her Longevity to an Ageless Approach to Life
Moreno recognized that maintaining a positive attitude has played a significant role in her long career—both in show business and in life as a whole—”most likely to a great extent.”
Summing up her philosophy, she described it as “spreading joy.” She shared, “If I see someone wearing a beautiful jacket on the street, I don’t hesitate to stop and say, ‘Excuse me, that is a beautiful jacket, you have great taste.’ I have discovered that this simple act brings happiness to people.”
Engaging in acts of kindness that are often overlooked, such as holding a door open or assisting someone at the supermarket, can have a significant impact.
“And people might not recognize me,” she added. “Don’t assume that everyone knows Rita Moreno. They simply remember that someone was kind to them at the supermarket and helped with their groceries. I adore doing these things because I know it brightens that person’s day.”
The Prank is currently showing in theaters.
