Now that I am 17 years old, I do not think too much about getting older, but if I am asked, I would
say, I would like to live to be 100 years old.
In every family there is a member of the family who is in their 80s, we have a neighbor or we know
someone who is that age. Most of them are able to live independently, but it is also true there are
others who need to be looked after in their own homes or old houses.
I would love to live to be 100, but of course I would like to have a healthy life and be capable of
doing everything on my own. Unfortunately, this can not be chosen, it depends on many factors, so
we can not do anything about it.
If I am lucky enough to live 100 years old, I would like to live happily because it is very sad not to
be able to manage your own life.
