old age

Jun 13, 2004 02:18

So I found out tonite that my ex's 103 yr old aunt just died. I met her last may. She was a nice lady. I feel sad, but at the same time, it's not like people have all that much to live for at that age. The woman must have slept like 1/2 the day. I'm trying not to be insensitive, but I have to think that if I was a relative of a 103 yr old who passed, I could seriously look at the situation and realize they had a great long life and many things to be proud of. I wouldn't be so sad because there is probably a lot more pain that goes along with that age than there are joys in living. Anyways, I hope he feels better about it soon.
