i mean, i hear you on choosing your end, but i have known some folks who enjoyed later life. my mom died suddenly a couple years ago, and she confessed to me over the last couple years that she was ready to go when her time came. that said, i think she was happier in her early 70’s than i had ever known her to be otherwise. and my family certainly doesn’t have money to smooth the way.

i think she just decided to make the most of it, made an effort to enjoy her community and stayed super active. i’m hoping i will handle aging as well as she did.
