To die young, or to die Old
Someone once asked me, what do I prefer ... to die young, or to die in old age ... at that moment I didn't know what to answer, I thought that every stage of life has its charm ... childhood is a game. ..adolescence is a discovery ... maturity has the blessing of children ... and old age has the blessing of grandchildren .... But now I think I know the answer ... I would rather die at the right time than live in the wrong moment .. ..whether I'm wrong or not, only God knows ... but until we find out His opinion, we are all free to have our opinions on this subject. Thank you for your attention.

I'd rather die at the right time, having accomplished all what I came to do on this planet, having accumulated all the knowledge and wisdom that I was supposed to and, above all...with the quality of life.
The inevitable outcome of death and then unconsciously rotting in the ground just doesn't appeal to me at all.
To each their own, I guess.
Sure, there's no way to avoid that outcome eventually. But it can wait while I enjoy life as best I can.

Life in itself is beautiful I want to live as long as Jehovah God permits me time on this earth , but I do not want to be miserable when I grow old . I wish to grow old gracefully .
My grandmother on my fathers side lived to be ( 96 ) years and she was doing everything slowly, but she did it , making groceries, market , cooking and she was a very good cook and you could have found her in church on Saturdays , she died in her sleep .
Dying at the right time, That is just silly.
Lean not on your own understandings of the whys & wherefores of the timing of your departure.
