The concept of living a very long life speaks of this unbridled hope in being blessed with all the time we need to design and live the life we wish for, and work towards.
In my mind, it is about living a purposeful life for as many days as we get to walk on this beautiful earth. Life is about creating myriad fleeting moments of sheer joy that reflect our values, is aligned with the fervour of our soul.
It is about learning to value life and all the blessings it offers. No two life stories are the same and yet we have infinite amazingly successful and fulfilled life stories. That is the beauty of the human community, only if we can appreciate it as such; only when we can value life, sans judgemental comparisons. So, accept your individualistic medical, physiological, emotional, and soul-fulfilling needs; and design a life that lets you live with it, peacefully and contentedly. That, to me, is the idea of living a very long life.
