I asked my young brother one day, "How long do you wanna live?" (It was in a threatening tone cause he was annoying me.)
He said (innocently) "All my life." 
I plan to live to 93 and if I get past that, I will consider it to be a bonus. |

I want to live as long as I'm able to enjoy life and have someone to love (that may be a cat or dog).
If I'm able to be creative in my studio and in the garden with a pet or two and a few close friends, I'm good. I don't want to be incapacitated, living in a "home" and depending on others. |

You have a studio? Are you an artist? I am an artist and I just got a new studio. Here is my mingle gallery.http://mingle2.com/topic/show/305330 |

I have often thought about this. When I was a child and having the life beat out of me on a frequent basis there were times when I just closed my eyes and prayer for Jesus to take me home. There were times when I am pretty sure he " took me for a walk" a few times because I survived my youth. With repeated miscarriages I often wondered if what I was doing in the world as an adult was really worth anything then I was blessed with a child that donfirmed if I did nothing else I had a purpose and it was a blessing to put above any hardship. When my children went out on their own and eventually appear to be more than strong enough to thrive in the world I wondered if the sometimes searing pain I live with day in an day out was my permission to stop fighting to keep my body that seems to find new3 ways to betray me daily going. Without medical intervention I would have died a long time ago. Now I have a 84 year old terminally ill parent who has worked no less than sixty years, out lived two wives, his son, and mll of his friends and many of his aquaintences. Barely able to swallow, stand, or do much more than lay in pain the majority of his days dependent on 24/7 care has chosen no more intervention and pass hopefully peacefully before many more weeks are passed. To my way of thinking I am honoring his choice as I hope when I find myself with a similiar absence of quality of life I would be allowed to pass/ I honestly do not know if I will find another purpose for my life when that happens or not. I have friends/family that I hope would miss me, a period of my life I hope to enjoy as much as I can, but will I allow anyone to force me to live what I may find as eventually an empty and intolerable life I can tell you with certany the answer is no. Could I determin the moment; yes and no person on this earth really has the power to stop me fortuneately in a free society that allows us the privilege of self determination when we make that decision with sound mind and write an advanced directive that prevents others from inflicting life when we no longer maintain it. Do I know exactly what day, what age, that will be.not really. I have friends that have quite advanced lives and even though they can not do everything they once could still do enough that they live and even enjoy thier life. Not to mention contribute to the lives of others. With technology I am hopefully for me thaqt is a couple more decades but who knows. I have no crystal ball.

I love living! There's so much to do and experience,, I don't have any intention of quitting. I was blessed with great grandparents and grandparents that lived into their late 90's. With that in mind, I've got another 55+ years to go! I feel like I've just gotten started.

With the economy as bad as it is maybe the nurseing home jobs will keep a few peole from being hungry. I just hope they improve the care that is usual before the majority of us get to that age.

I don't want to be hooked to machines, not being able to do anything of any kind....but then again if I wind up getting Alzheimer's, I don't want that kind of life either. I watched my grandmother, (my Father's mother) and now Dad is suffering from it too. I don't ever want to put my family or care-takers through what he is putting my Mom through.

I want to die three years after (more or less) at least one of these life-long ambitions happen:
1. I get crowned to be the Emperor of Ancient Krete. 2. I forgot this one. This is actually not a joke. 3. I get an article published in a real life publication. 4. I have sex with any one or more of these ladies: Raquel Welch, or Welsh, Hilary Clinton, Sarah Palin, Agnes Eross (the girl everyone wanted to date in high school), Jutka Cseh (the girl in grade school), or Marika Kekesi (a girlfriend of my aunt's, she's over 80 now, and beautiful as ever. She is mentally demented; not crazy, but demented, due to old age. She's been a faithful wife to her husband for over 60 years now, the biiiitch, that's my beef. I asked her once when she was still with it, "Marika, how many men you met in you life who did not want to put you to task, and how many did you meet in a day that each wanted to put you task?" and she replied, every man, absolutely every one of them gave her at least a mild come-on, and there were at least seven or eight brand new admirers, men, in any given day in her life who propositioned her, in a very polite way or otherwise. She became best friends with my aunt because Auntie was brilliant, with a sharp, sharp mind and cutting wit, and mainly with my uncle, because he happened to be very smart, too, but only about half the IQ of aunty, a community man, and the only man outside of the clergy who never flirted with her or made advances. She is a rare beauty, absolutely stunning. Her life's tragedy has been, or rather, was, that she was way more beautiful than intelligent. Her husband had been one of the intellectual giants in the old country, but he had a stroke in his thirties.) |
