Maybe I'm Amazed

if you consider middle age 50 or 60, to me, that is assuming that person is going to live to be 100 or 120.  Of course, that is a very literal interpretation, but that has always been my thought.  Probably not the norm, but hey, that's me sometimes on a whole different page. Interesting question, though.  It will be interesting to see what others think.
