Life Expectancies & What's left of it
Was reading my text earlier on life expectancies being 73 for males and 80 for females. Come to think of it, my parents are about 50, that leaves them with about 20 odd years (average) to go. So i have another 20 years to make amends and do whatever i can to take care of them. Sounds like that's pretty much it for life isn't it. Live for 20 years, work for another 40 years to bring up your kids, the remaining 20 pray hard that they look after you and then you pass on. I wonder how will they look like at 80 when they're really old. Quite hard to imagine, both of them still look quite young to me. This is just weird. But i think it definitely reminds me that time is running out.
