I know this is funny and I was just going to put it in the Humor section, but then decided I really wanted to see if we could have a discussion about whatever points ring true to you, because behind the humor is, I feel, a great deal of wisdom.

The points that poke fun at our ultimate demise really brings home to me that life is for living, and that embracing a lifestyle whose primary purpose is to prevent dying is futile. While I don’t maintain that viewpoint, I have a couple friends who apparently do, and at least from the outside looking in their lives seem very austere and regimented. I suppose it works for them but I sure don’t want that for myself.

And that last line omg!😂 A great deal
of my life was spent just trying to survive. I gave no thought to aging, though a lot of my time was spent thinking of dying. (I was passively suicidal) Now that I'm a senior, and finally living my life to the fullest, at times it feels like I‘ve been old forever because so much of my adult life was spent in a fog of depression and apathy that it feels like I missed most of those years.

So much more I could comment on, but I’m trying to curb my motormouth tendencies. 😉😂🤦🏼‍♀️ What say you all about these points??
 

Those are great points!

My favorite though is the last unnumbered one, :

Don't worry about old age. It doesn't last that long.

So true and that can really be a reminder about enjoying what you have while you can still have it.
 
Number 4, can't remember?
Number 5 is a kick in the head!
I hate this infernal mechanism; yet it whispers sweet lies, come hunt and peck...
