Everyone wishes to live long, not willing to die early. We, Chinese, always say: “better to live ugly than to die glory.” which should mean something to certain extent.
There was a person called Zhang Qun who wrote the following. “Get up early and sleep well. Do not eat much, about seventy percent enough. Laugh as often as possible. Always take a walk. Don’t worry. Keep on working every day.” If you can do this, you won’t be old. His words should be carefully observed because he was a person to have lived his life up to ninety-eight.
U.S. Columnist Ann Landers said the following: “I have good news for you. The first eighty years are the hardest. Once you reach eighty, everyone wants to carry your baggage and help you up the stairs. If you survive up to eighty, everyone will be surprised that you are still alive. They treat you with respect just because you have lived so long. They even surprised that you can still walk and talk sensitively at eighty. So, please, folk, try best to live up to eighty. That is the best age in life.
According to the statics in Canada, people who can live up to ninety are only at one percentage of one thousand. Therefore, we should cherish our life and to live our life carefully.
