Today is my 51 years old birthday

Since I am going to live to 125 years old, just 70+ years to go.

I aged well, like fine wine.  Only appreciated by those who knows fine wine   :-).  Otherwise I am just another bottle of alcohol to get drunk on.

Kidding aside, I think future human will live to at least 125 years old if we learn to live a mentally and physically healthy life.  Don't sweat the small stuff, don't hate or do harm to other people; and that's my secret of looking young.

You are as old as you think you are.  With age, hopefully comes with wisdom, but not the baggage.

My plans been:

1. Hike the Appalachian Trail - been preparing for a while by walking/jogging/running, and that's where the Hispanic rapist/abductor attacked me.  I was specifically targeted, haven't been out since.  I am older than this pervert's grandmother, and an Asexual, what is wrong with these savages.

2. Backpack through South America -  Tried to join other backpackers/international travelers.

3 When I am old and feeble, I am going to buy a one engine airplane and do some Island hopping.

A job as a Patent Examiner gives me the freedom and flexibility to do all above activities, and the added peak of telework where I don't have to deal with racists, bigots, haters, psychologically unstable and diabolical individuals, etc.  Also as my retirement plan which I told my ex-officemate Hung Havan; but these diabolical racists such as Hung Havan and his cabal Nathan Hillery, Michele Choi, Susanne Lo and her Indian friends, Tuan Nguyyen and his countrymen/women had to ruin it for me.  I hoped what they have done to me will be done back onto them, if there is such thing as justice.  Or else, they will do this to other examiners again until the place is a cesspool.        

But in college, I was aspired to be a scientist/Professor/researcher, to change the world and make the world a better place to live.  Most of my co-workers would've been my students had my research funding wasn't cut. 

Life is a journey, enjoy the trip.

Life is a journey, the less baggage you carry, the further you will go.
