Do you
want to live to 100 and beyond?
If you have an autoimmune disease, such as myasthenia
gravis, do you still want to live to 100 and beyond? Maybe you do, and maybe
you don’t. Irrespective of which part of your life journey you are currently on
(actually, nobody knows), you have to live if you just don’t die. But how are you going to live as if
everything is a miracle?
“You Just Don’t Die!” Is this book right for you?
Human existence is meaningless without life purpose and
human happiness. The pursuit of longevity has been going on since time
immemorial. Consciousness holds the key to the success of this pursuit.
Consciousness is wisdom of the mind to understand the self, others, as well as
how and why certain things happen. Wisdom is the capability of the self to ask
self-intuitive questions along the life journey.
To live to 100 and beyond—if you just don’t die—you must ask
questions about life; after all, living is about asking questions and seeking
answers to the questions asked, and thereby instrumental in providing wisdom or
a blueprint to continue the rest of your life journey.
The first question you should consciously ask yourself is:
"How long do I wish to live?" Of course, that is only a hypothetical
question because you really don’t have much of a choice—unless you would like
to purposely end your life prematurely. Naturally, the answer to that question
may also change over different phases in your life, depending on the quality of
your life in that particular phase.
The second question you should consciously ask yourself is:
"Why do I want to live long, or why not?" This question will be
naturally followed by the third question: “How do I live long, or what can make
me desire to live longer?”
The final question—if you just don’t die—is: "How
should I live the rest of my life to overcome my daily problems and life
challenges?"
This book may help you answer all the above
questions, and much more.
The objective of this book is neither to convince you to
crave longevity, nor to show you how to live to one hundred and beyond. It
simply presents you with the consciousness of living the rest of your years as
if everything is a miracle—if you just don’t die!
