We often hear about doing things to keep yourself healthy and live a longer life.
About how Coke is not good for you so now we will spend more for a bottle of water than a Coke. We need to grow a garden and raise a cow; because all those farmers keep putting chemicals in our food. Smoking is a big no no and on and on we go trying to live till we are 100 years old.
Health care has also come a long way. During the civil war leg and arm amputations was the #1 operation. We did not understand that taking the bullet out was only a small part because we did not understand germs. Not today; we can not only fix many parts of your body; we can take a part from a pig and put it into your body. Never mind the cost; we want medical science to be so good we could live till we are over 100 years old.
So now I live in a age where I do not have to fear dying at 45 or 50 years old. I do live in a age where I have to worry about paying for this health care that lets me live to 100. I also have to worry about how I am gona pay for this nursing home they put me into because my mind did not last as long as my body did. So as we sit in the nursing home pooping our pants and sucking our thumbs; we wonder where did we go wrong.
I know when a love one is the victim it is a real hard choice. But when as a society are we gona realize that we were put on this earth for one thing. Like every other mammal we were put here to live long enough to have offspring and raise said offspring to a age they can go out on their own. Any time past that is considered lagniappe.
I just feel we put to high a value on living today. We will go threw our whole life not enjoying life because we choose things based on how healthy they are for us rather than just saying to heck with it "I'm gona enjoy my life" We will also (and here is the big one) spend hundreds of thousands of dollars for medical treatments that sometimes only extends the life by a couple of years.
So do I need to commit myself to the closest psych ward for thinking this way?
