Longevity's spiritual purpose
In the United States the "graying of America" is a reference to growing numbers of senior citizens. An article in Parade Magazine stated that "by the year 2030, one out of every four Americans will be 60 or older." Jess Gorkin, "Is America Ready for Its Elderly?" Parade Magazine, January 2, 1983, p. 12 .
Humanity's concept of longevity ranges from being able to look back on a personal achievement with great pride on one hand, to a tenacious clinging to life in matter on the other. This concept demands more careful thought and prayer.
