As a centenarian, what will be the most important thing in your daily life?

Take some time to think about actually living that many years and all that you will have witnessed.

    Seeing my father-in-law in his final decrepitude, I'm not sure i want to live that long. Certainly not if my memory is shattered like his is.

    I noticed the pattern on your kilt and am now wondering if you are part of the Petrie clan. Cheers! This post was edited by Nanoose at March 7, 2022 8:52 AM MST

    My better half is entitled to wear the green and blue of the Gay Gordons, by derivation. A distant cousin of the General himself.

    There are plenty of choices.  A new one every day.....and night is acceptable.

      Not being a burden to anyone else and/or being able to do things for myself, such as communicating, thinking, mobility, eating, dressing/undressing, cleaning myself, taking care of my body and bodily functions, and finally, the ability to perform sexually.

    I think you will be able to achieve some of that.  You seem to take good care of yourself.

    Consuming a lot of carrots and sunflower seeds which are plentiful in vitamins A and E. Research has indicated that the bodies of people who live to age 100 and beyond contain high levels of these nutrients.

    In the meantime during all my years of existence living by the motto: work hard and play hard.

    Most very old people that I have known are most concerned about their bowels and their blood pressure. I hope that at that age, I will find something each day that brings me joy and that I  continue to be grateful for having lived a peaceful and prosperous life compared to so many other parts of the world.
