Image by Getty Images via Daylife I am a 46 year old female who loves fitness and wellness. I truly believe that being healthy is not only about being thin or not being fat, but about being well fit, eating healthy, about exercising not only the body but the brain and the inner spirit (you can call it "inner self" if you wish). Being kind to oneself and others creates a positive environment around us thus making our body more healthy by keeping the main cardiovascular and metabolic functions at their best.
But, is it creating peace and happiness around us the key factor for a long and happy life? How come there are so many disrespectful/hateful/bitter old men and women out there who continue to harm people, animals and nature and continue to live a long life while doing so? Why is it that some kind and healthy people don't get to live long lives? And why is it that many bitter and angry people live long ones? Is it only genetics what gives us longevity or there are other factors that influence how long the human body is going to live?
Well, I know most of my readers are well educated and know that genetics plays a big roll in longevity, but they also know that eliminating some risk factors can make some of us live longer despite the possibility of carrying some defective genes.
The question stands though:
Why some hateful people get to live long lives?
Is it maybe that just by strongly wishing to live a long life (with the help of genetics of course) one can make the body to obey the mind?

Those are very interesting thoughts. Who knows why some rotten people live so long? I have personally known a few, but I also know that they have numerous health problems. They feel terrible and complain about that in addition to being horrible humans. I wish I knew the answer to that question.
The sister of my grandmother died last year ago at the age of 102. She was MEAN! She was, really, a very mean old lady. She always screamed at the neighborhood kids, didn't want anybody around and liked solitude. She died of old age, didn't have any physical disease. Why did she live so long? She was always a very thin person and walked long distances all her life. Took care of what she ate and never smoked nor drunk alcohol. BTW, her mother and father were diabetics and had heart problems. But she lived a long life.
Why?
She wanted to live a long life. She always said so.
I have an evil stepfather that I wish death upon but he keeps on living his miserable life.
