Still around

Every day I wonder, how come I am still around? I am sure, the statistics say, that I am long past ‘my use by date’. Am I just lucky, or what? So far, I am rather grateful, that I am still alive, for essentially I can still look mostly after myself, and I am still able to enjoy life despite all the restrictions because of Covid.

My feeling is, if I have to go any day now, I am ready for departing. I do not want to hang onto life if my body tells me, it is time to let go. My wish is, that everyone who loves me, should be willing to let me go any time now. If I can live ‘naturally’ without any elaborate treatments for another few years, so be it. But really, my wish is, to die of a natural death and not be subjected to ICU’s and the like.
