What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?

Having recently just said goodbye to my soon to be 90 year old mother and seeing her age after the recent passing of my Dad, I’m sad by long life.

While, of course, life is beautiful, lately it seems to be turning into a string of disjointed good moments sprinkled with sad moments. The overall concept of living a very long life is appealing but be sure to have space in your heart as the years go by reserved for those who pass before you. These are not the years for the heart to become weak, but stronger with the love from those days gone by.

Cherish the moments. Stay healthy. Keep your mind sharp. Time is not guaranteed to any of us. Make the most of each day you are given to make the very long life worthwhile.
