Is Long Life Necessary

Everyone wishes to have a long life. If is a dream of any old people. But there are two kinds of long life, one kind healthy long life, another miserable life. If you live a healthy long life, it is a blessing from God or you may live a miserable long life under pain.
A healthy life means that you can take care of your own life independently. No need to ask assistance from anybody. But if you are a person to ask others to help when going to toilet, asking somebody to wash your body, and to be fed by other persons. Such life is of no quality, no freedom in your daily life. Even you live such life for more years, it is meaningless. It may be better to die in a natural sickness than to live longer by the help of medicine.
We need long life, but we must be able to take care of ourselves in our daily life. Eating washing, going out, shall depend on ourselves without any help from anybody. Should we can do so, we can say we live a beautiful life. Such life can be achieved if we take care much in our middle-aged days.
