Hi dear my Lotters! I just took up a quiz on whether I can possibly live up to 80 years old or not, and the result I got was, Yes, most probably I could reach the age of 80. But of course, we all know it's in our lifestyle that we get to live longer than the average span of a human's life. Taking accidents aside, or anything associated with it, it really is hard to achieve it. I, personally don't have any habits. I don't smoke, I don't drink (well, if I do, it is very occasional), and the place where we live is surrounded by good nature, with lots of trees, and mountains, and fresh air.. though I don't have the best everyday routine, I still have a good diet, I guess.. In able to live a long life, we should take care of our selves. Eat well,love well, and be happy in life.. Do you think you'll live long? Do you have habits, or had one, but stopped it for your own good sake??

hi dear gen! ^_^ good for you that you find such good results. well,i hope you could reach that age as well,not just in quizzes.sometimes quizzes are not true at all. they are just there to make their creators get paid, for me,i don't know if i can reach that age as well. sometimes at my age right now,i am feeling things like not normal. i don't know if i have sickness cause i don't even have check ups. when i was still younger,i am always prone to accidents,even sickness. so,i have doubts if i can live that long. but despite all the sickness and accidents i have been through,i'm still here. getting close to you now. thing that i never thought possible before. but happened and i am happy to have a friend like you here. one of my friends i have known here,who also became close to me once said, i have survived accidents before because i am a bad weed.haha! guess she's right! i still have things to learn and accomplish,and happy to live with people who loved me. there are times i blame God why didn't He take me before... for me to be at peace now. God has His own reasons wh we are still here. we just have to know what is our mission...that s to make someone happy each and everyday,even if that someone is yourself.

dear, it's okay. i don't feel abnormal things everyday. how about you? please do take care of yourself,okay?! yeah,i think it's because of stress sometimes. i wonder how others manage to fight stress that easy. at first,i thought you are a snob and because you belong to group of friends who i don't like to mingle,that's why i didn't think of possibilities for us to be friends. well,if i can remember we just had the chance to talk because of earning online sites.haha. and by being with you here,gave me the chance to know you more. i'm really thankful that we are getting close now. I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get to know you as well. really hope our friendship will last. with regards to your topic,i want to say, i hope we could be close friends or just i say,best of friends til we get older...as long as we both lived.

Yep, I am not really convinced about that quiz anyway..But it gave me idea on how to live well and live long.. Oh are you feeling abnormal things? maybe it's because of stress.. I, too, feels something strange sometimes.. But I just ignore it.. If you feel something strange and if it happens to you often, you should go to a doctor and be checked.. I am so touched dear.. you mean you never thought that being friends with me is possible?? Why so?? Thanks for giving me the opportunity to know you better.. Hope our friendship will last.. Don't feel horrible about yourself. You still lives because God has His purpose for you. Don't blame him for anything. Just have faith in Him, and the answers will come for you.. Be happy dear...

Hi friend, you know my response to your question is "I DON'T KNOW". Your next question is WHY? Because even you and me have no bad habbit of smoking and alike, eating balance food but we forget somebody Who knows even the counts of our hair. It is God only can assure if you and me can reach at the age of 80. Even you and me are good enough we are in the hands of God only - anytime He can get our life... you get my point.. thanks... see you around

Me too, if I can answer, then the real answer would be, I don't know. Because We Really Do Not Know.. But, if we were able to give our opinion depending on our lifestyle, then an answer can definitely be told.. As I have said, I think I have good chances to have fairly longer life.. Yes, I do believe only God knows how long will we be able to live on Earth.. But I do hope He will give me enough time here to take care of my loved ones.. I don't worry much about myself.. But I do worry about them, especially my kid who is still very young..Oh drama.. thanks visavis..

haha eternal.. anybody can dream though.. It's not actually dreaming..I hope that because I have my reason to be alive. I have my family which I take care of. And so, I hope I'd live long. I want to witness everything about my child.. And so, if I can have the chance to have a long life, then why not? ans if I can have a choice on how to live, then why wouldn't I try right? I would benefit from it anyway, so I will try hard to aim for it..

hi there oldchem.. wow, so you are 60?Well I guess if you have very good and healthy lifestyle then you would reach up to 80 years.. Hope for the best for you dear.. I also wish I could reach 80 and above years of life here on Earth. I guess that if it's really what we want then we have to live through it. Be wise with what we take in and what we do with ourselves.. Thanks for your response oldchem..Happy myLotting!

Why doubt?We all live upto 80 years.This is mainly because the medical science is advanced that doctors will not allow us to die early for two reasons 1)to prove their medical expertise and 2)to live for themselves.If there are no patients who will pay them for their living.In olden days there were no medicines for many diseases but we have medicines for all diseases.There is no worry.I am already 76 plu.Will I not live another 4 yrs to reach your target.I have no doubt about reaching the target..

I don't think so I would live up to 80.I smoke and irregular diet habits and late night working and also tremendous work pressure all put together I think I may retire from at around 65 or so...

Stress put together with habit.. That would explain it.. but at least you expect to live up to 65.. keep healthy! Thanks...

living healthy is a good sign... but living longer is more challenging... to many factors and probably faith is one of those factors also. what you believe in counts. what you do or make counts also.

hi there zurigano, yep, more challenging indeed.. that's a good one. living healthy inside and out is one very good way to have longer life. So meaning, I should have faith that I will be able to live beyond 80's..And it is in what we do that gives us what to expect in life.. But, you haven't answered the question, whether you think you'll live up to 80 or not.. by the way, welcome to myLot..and thanks for responding zurigano. hope you'll enjoy your stay here..
