i remember when i was young i had watched a movie wherein people can stay young if they would take in a very expensive potion...i have also read a novel by Stephen King (Deception), wherein all people in the world die...except for very few... now, being a mother of 2 young kids, i realized i dont want to die yet...am afraid of dying early coz im afraid nobody would look after and take care of my kids. want to watch them grow and have a family of their own.want them to enjoy life. but i dont want to die too old as well...that my family members would have difficulty because of me. anyways, it's always the will of the Lord that will always happen......thanks be to God.

I don't really know in what age I would like to die but I do hope that I will have enough time to really enjoy life, have a kid, and live a life with happy family before it happens. I know that it will happens anytime, it could happen because of accident, illness and such so I'm trying to take care of myself everyday and also stay healthy.

if the question is what age would you like to die? My answer is 71 ;-) I dont want to say I want to be alive forever or 10 years old. I am not a very health person,because I have a back problems that always seems makes me sick and sore,and every time I have sore back I would think I might die very soon,hmmm life is too short,I would like to enjoy everyday that I have,but if I can live for 100 years i might very upset of it,LOL sometimes I feel longer life make troublesome for someone else.hmmm so enough is enough

I would like to 100 at least when i die , because i figure that way i will have seen amazing stuff i have already witnessed the computer revolution and the internet, i've seen gay people be able to get married in certain places. I figure one day I'll be explaining to my grand children that wasn't always allowed and that there were places called nursing homes, where old people and disable people go when there was no one to take care of them, unlike the nation program i'm sure we will have one day to fund that. I imagine they will look at me the same way i looked at my grandmother when she told me about segregated water fountains and it not being allowed for a iteration couple to get married, that will be a great day and i hope to live to see it

If only I have a choice, I would surely want to live longer and see my grandchildren. My only daughter is only four years old and that would be many years from now when I will be a ble to become a grandmother. I hope by then I am still physically able so I will enjoy life.

people will not stay young forever. We are getting older day by day no matter how much you spend on the portion. I am a young man who take care of his mother and other siblings because my father passed away five years ago. I am afraid of dying but sooner or later I will die too.I do not know how God will take my life. He is The Almighthy.

As a mother I have the same concern too because my son is only 6. However, somehow I have prepared myself to die, although i don't want it now. I was orphaned at a very young age but I was strong then because I was raised to survive. So i could never guess exactly what would happen to me so I'm kind of preparing my son to be brave. I've told him what he needs to know in case i die sooner than expected. :(

Yes if we are valuable for others we don't want yet to die early especially if we have a kids to look and care for. We always after our family first for their needs and love them as we can and do all the best in the world. We would like to give them the best as we can give. Like now we are all young and our children grow faster we feel that we need to be in a hurry to accommodate all things for them. The preparations seems like very short. Now after we prepare those things needed for our family we feel that we are ready to die But still there a room for "if" if ever i don't want tot die to old that my family will get affected to care for me. if only our choices can happen but only God has the authority to all.

I don't wanna set up a an age when i wanna die. I just wanna let it be. I'll die when it's my time. This is a very scary question. I believe that you'll get what you wish for so i'm careful when it comes to things like this.

Hi cyrri_ako This is difficult question. Even though I am young now, but I know I have to die someday. When I think about that everytime, I am sad. Just same to you, I dont wanna die too old, my family would have difficulty because of me. I dont wanna be a burden. This question is good, but I dont wanna think about it right now, because I am still young. I hope you, too, buddy. Thinking about more good things. Thats good for you. Anyway, have a nive day.

If God would ask me if what age I wanna die I want to die after I finish my purpose and mission in life. When no one needs me anymore and I can leave them when they can manage a life without me. It can be for the next 5 years or more And i wanna tell our dear Lord that may His will be done and not mine.

every beginning there's always an ending. but if my days on will pass, i want it to be at the age of 80. since i want to get married with my boyfriend at the age of 26, and hopefully have children of three. want to spend more time with my husband then, with our children and with our grandchildren. i want to see the innocent smiles, the songs of their laughters, and their eyes from their grandfather. but if this will not fall into its place ill still be thankful for what God's time given for me. since our life was just borrowed from him. we must not live on our plans, but with His plans for us. :)
