I Don’t Know Whether I Will Live That Long
Author: siggyI don’t know whether I will live that long: the mattress we just bought is guaranteed for twenty years. Frankly I don’t know if I will outlive the mattress. In another twenty years I will be eighty-three. I know my family is long-lived. My Dad lived 91 years and my Mom was over 81 when she died. Nevertheless I am not sure I will make it that long. It gets me thinking, that is all. I need to focus on the time allotted to me. One never knows when one’s times runs out.
