You know that as we get older death or the thought of death gets less frightening. We live....we die....it cannot be changed. Many have tried to live forever none so far have succeeded. It would be OK living for a bit longer if we stayed in our prime and remained healthy but as you get older and start aching and getting slower and cannot do the things you used to you would get bored and fed up with life if you lived too long like that. My wifes mother is 90 soon.....she is always saying that she has not got long to go......when my wife says things like mother stop saying that her mother says well it is true I have come to terms with it so should you.
My fav old persons sayings are
"you are only as old as you feel and when you stop feeling you are old"
AND
"sex? I used to be able to do it all night...now it takes me all night to do it"
