At this age, you would think that many people would be smarter and wiser. This is when psychosocial, cognitive and biosocial development come into play. For many years we will come to terms with our bodys giving up on us, as well as our mind playing tricks on us which will be very hard to overcome.

    I believe that this will be around the time that I will pass, as long as I keep up with good health.
