I would like to be a centenarian like the Delany sisters, Sadie and Bessie, of Having Our Say book and television movie fame, who lived well past a hundred. (The Delany sisters, now deceased, were the aunts of science fiction writer Samuel Delany.) Living such a long life would enable me to accomplish more of my goals. But, as Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, longevity has its place.
If I do live to see my one hundredth birthday, I want to be a spry and alert one hundred, not one unable to put one foot in front of the other or who doesn't know day from night.
