The Fun Side Of Science
My grandmother lived to be a little over 100 years old…she had a sharp mind up until the end and was physically able to get around very well and live independent with her meals delivered and a house keeper until also the last few months of her life. The lesson I learned from her is that one’s attitude seems to be the key.

That’s a beautiful lesson learned from an amazing life of an amazing woman. You are so fortunate to have known her. 🙂

I don’t care what’s on the other side, I’m just sick of what’s on this side of reality. But if I can stay fit, handsome, virile and potent, not too saggy cash cow and absent ‘old man smell’ then maybe I’ll take a stab beyond 62, because after that you’re trapped in a cage of decay watching your world vanish. Worth a shot?

Sure. I know a lot of sexagenarians who are healthier and more active than 40-something people like me. 🙂

It’s still not reassuring because an aged body is not a choice; I found another grey/gray hair this morning (it’s gone now) – that train is never late, but I truly hope the train is loaded with revellers. I think it’s not about aged, it’s about the age, the decade. The coming 20’s will be swinging for us (we’ll be in our 50s), so we have to do at least that much, after which we can review our options anew! Keep your party dress ready.

The life verse that I chose for myself is Philippians 1:21 which says, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (ESV). It serves as a daily reminder that if God takes me home today, I will consider it great gain on my part. But if God keeps me another day longer in this world, I will use the time to live for Christ and serve Him.
