I wonder if longer living is because you have done a whole bunch of things thinking it would make a difference or the result of doing less and letting your body sort it out? My father is 418 days away from becoming 100 and still gets around fairly well and is not suffering any major afflictions. He hasn't done a whole lot of special things hoping to live longer. It's baffling.
May you keep ticking and a-kicking for many more years. I am getting up there myself (age 76) and refuse to worry about the coming days or years. It's all relative and yet mysterious.
Sending healing vibes your way, Graham. My mother just turned 83 a few days ago and is still going strong and I've mused that perhaps having children around helps keep her strong. As my daughters aged into teenagers a now four and seven year old appeared in the house to keep her on her toes. Perhaps it's less about what you do per say and more that it gives you a reason to get out of bed and have purpose in this world.
We're likely near the peak for living longer. I suspect most people that are 65 or under now will die off much earlier due to processed foods and environmental toxins. There might be hope for some who follow a ketovore or, better yet, carnivore diets but they are a distinct minority.
"The broken muscle drained into my ankle and foot . . ."
Hey Graham, sorry to hear about that muscle problem. Never heard of what you are describing. . . What comes to mind is DMSO. Have you consider that as something to help heal?
Giving into reality, is not something that those of us planning to live forever, contemplate very much. I wasn’t aware that Daniel Kahnemańs death was an own goal but I still can’t get over someone such as him who is so devoted and adapt at studying human behavior falling for the Covid scamDemic lies. It definitely supports the view that our slow brain is mostly used as a brilliant lawyer, to justify our viewpoint rather than a reliable arbiter of the truth.

Here's to many more birthdays for you both...
I love reading about the life in your family. A lot to keep you going!

100% concentration is best if ya' got it.

Had not thought of DMSO. I have a bottle on the shelf. I'll rub some on the leg. Thanks.

But his real pearl of wisdom is, that happiness is an illusion!
