Hello Steemit Community,
My name is Stephen Lafond and this my first post.
Why would I choose a title like this one?
36525 days to live !
Life goes quickly and the clock is ticking.
Time is life’s most precious asset.
A human life has a potential of approximately 36525 days to live. (100 years)
Did you ever stop your daily activities to think about that?
Every night when I go to bed, when I fall asleep , I have one less day to live.
Yes I know, It sounds obvious, but when was the last time you really considered that?
Are you aware of this?
This is what it looks like.
The number of days you should expect to live according to your age.
36525,36524,36523,36522 if I am a newborn.
27395,27394,27393,27393 if I am 25 years old
18263,18262,18261,18260 if I am 50 years old
9131,9130,9129,9128 if I am 75 years old
1826,1825,1824,1823 if I am 95 years old
365,364,363,362 if I am 99 years old
This scenario is based on a perfect life potential, in a perfect world with perfect conditions.
Not too many of us will have this kind of life. There will be challenges and obstacles.
Now, in reality, my life expectancy will be influenced by which part of the world I am born in. It also depends on whether I am born a male or a female.
Life expectancy may vary between 35 and 85 years old depending on which country I am born in.
For example if the life expectancy in my country of origin is 35 years old , I should expect to live 12780 days as a potential.
If the life expectancy in my country is 85 years old , I should expect to live approximatively 31046 days.
Next comes the hereditary factors on which I have very little control over, like an unexpected and unforgiving cancer and other uncontrollable circumstances such as car accidents, sport accidents, plane crashes …….I’ll let you think about this until next time.
How long do you expect to live?
What will you do with this life?
Tell me what you think
I'd like to hear from you.

Oh before I forget,
Who would I like to reach?
Everyone and especially people under 30…
So-called experts told me that the market for the subject I chose is for people between the age of 30 and 55 years.
I hope they are wrong!
Why?
Because I hope to encourage young people to wake up as early as possible with their lives.
Why ?
In my mind, I feel like a 20 something, but since I’m 49, I look like a 40 something. I asked a few people in their 60’s and 70’s and they told me that in their mind, they still feel young.
But no matter how young you try to look or pretend to be, one day you have to face the truth, the picture you are holding of yourself is showing the face of someone your age.
And this when we fully realize how fast time goes by…
