<p><strong><em>&#8220;The older you get the faster it goes.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<p>Wednesday, while in Philadelphia to give a keynote speech, there was a rare moment with the television on in my hotel room.  A local couple were celebrating their 70th wedding anniversary. Four children, eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren.</p>
<p><strong>Have you heard older people say the older you get, the faster time goes?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Does this notion have any truth for you?</strong></p>
<p><strong>I guess the big question is, &#8220;Do you ignore or embrace this truth?&#8221;</strong></p>

<p><strong>Are you ready to die? Most don&#8217;t like to think about it. Ever wonder why this is so? </strong></p>
<p><strong>Two weeks ago on a flight to Allentown, Pennsylvania, I asked the woman (70-ish) next to me about death and dying. Long story, but it was neither awkward nor inappropriate.</strong></p>
<p>The woman said she was not afraid of death. She told me &#8220;her life story&#8221; but added at the end, she was afraid of two things:</p>
<ol>
<li>Having no control over things</li>
<li>Becoming a burden</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>While visiting Family in Allentown, I asked some direct questions.  The answers were fuzzy, meaning I left with no more insight than when I arrived.</strong></p>
