Older than . . .

Post date: Dec 30, 2015 9:53:54 AM

I have had, and plan on continuing to have a great life. I have been loved and cherished from birth right through my adulthood. I feel blessed - and you my dear family are a large part of the blessing.

I am the same age, possibly happier but not as well known as Dr Who (Peter Capaldi); Ellen de Generes and Madonna.

So I will be older and hopefully wiser than Hitler. Older and hopefully safer than Abraham Lincoln; older and hopefully healthier than Steve Jobs or Linda McCartney.

There was another who was 56 when he died and we could say it wasn't soon enough - Adolf Hitler.

Today is my last day of being 56. By tomorrow I will have outlived people such as Abraham Lincoln, Steve Jobs, Roger Miller Linda McCartney and Betty Grable. These people were all said to have died before their time.I find it amazing to think that Abraham Lincoln had been President for 4 years before he was my age. Mind you current President is 3 years younger than me. Average age of US Presidents at inauguration is 54.
