When should you die is something thats come up alot of late chatting with my girl. I have always looked at life to end around the age of 60, 60 years to grow and learn, 60 years see the world and pass on the knowledge. I want to live life to the max but when I stop living I want to STOP living.
In this episode of Horizon:(dont grow) up they did an experiment were they took some old men and woman back in the past. Placing them in a house that had all the themes and items of the 1950s. Treating them as normal people, no ads and no one doing anything for them.
On the 2nd day everyone was helping with then cooking and the cleaning up. In less then a week all showed signs of better sight, mobility and IQ.
One man through he could walk without a stick... He did
Seeing something like this, with people still doing everything that they always have. no nurses and helpers around, showing that living over 70 is not just surviving but still living. Shows that the best way to live till old age is not the drugs and all the medical help in the world, its simply wanting to live.
The last line in the show was a old lady or 102 saying that "if my leg would take it, I would be dancing"
