How long can you expect to live? What are you doing "right" that is adding to your
longevity? What are you doing "wrong"? How can you make any necessary changes?
Life can change and unexpected can always happen. As a human being whose body
continue aging, I have always admired to seed hundred and plus years. After all, nothing can live
forever, not even the sun. Every person would love to live a bit longer, more than each and every
optimistic human being would expect. With the modern advancements in technology and
medicine, I can expect that one day this will dramatically extend our lives. Although I am still
concerned such technology and treatments for producing the longevity would only be availed to
the wealthy.
It is always not the years in our lives that count, but the live in our years. Things I
practice to increase my longevity having more exercise every day; this has helped me in
improving my mental acuity, mood, muscle mass, balance and strong bones. Eating Fiber-rich
cereal for breakfast has whelped me maintain my blood sugar levels throughout. Drinking five to
eight glasses of water each day has also helped me to stay away from heart attacks.

My life span risk factors include; I have been having hard moments in finding love of my
life. Study has proved that this can shave off months of my life. Eating too much unhealthy foods
may also be contributing to reducing my lifespan. Staying sad is also another factor of short life
expectancy. I should save worrying for only really important things. Fear of death is also another
painful paradox which may contribute in shortening my lifespan.
What could be some causes for a “Mid-Life Crisis?” Explain the process that may set the
stage for the possibility of an individual experiencing one and discuss possible outcomes.
Life of every individual is full of totally different experiences of struggles and also
happiness. Life is full of colors that go through different stages and processes as it passes by. Not
only life is about experiences of satisfaction and joy but also about uncertainties and loneliness.
Mid-life crisis is a natural process which every person undergoes and sometimes it can feel so
uncomfortable.
Midlife crisis at times occur naturally and at sometimes, they can be triggered by external
factors like; debts. Most men have inabilities of paying debts and as a result, it contributes to
accumulation of stress. Another factor contributing to mid-life crisis includes bereavement, such
as death of a close relative. It can also be other significant change or loss like divorce or
redundancy. This may contribute to grief these causing physical changes to a person.
Avoidant personality may also contribute to mid-life crisis. Persons with tendency of
avoiding conflicts in their individual relationships suffer from inadequacy feeling, have low self-
Insert surname3
esteem and are emotionally distant. They have deep fear of rejection and feeling shame. Such
feeling will keep them away from sharing their individual problems and seeking assistance and
this will make them run from their troubles instead of finding solutions.
Mid-life crisis can lead to depression hence need for psychotherapy. People with difficult
times with this transitional stage may experience range of feelings like; unhappiness with life,
feeling of need for change and adventure, more questioning over made choices, confusion over
who they are, anger, and doubts over their loved ones.
What should we expect as far as intellectual changes go as we age? How can an individual
“exercise” their intelligence?
Intellectual changes are the changes individual undergo through throughout their lives in
their thinking. Basically it is the changes in brain and also a cognitive development. These are
the changes which occur as a result of experiences and growth, in person’s capacities for
reasoning, thinking, judging, relating and conceptualizing.
In children’s reasoning, thinking, and other intellectual capacities together with their
emotional and social developments and their verbal and motor skills, is some of the descriptive
accounts of studying how intellectual changes occur during the growth of a person.
Adolescents experience intellectual changes in how they reason and think. In adolescent
stage, a lot of intellectual developments occur as one remembers more and understands more.
During this stage, people are egocentrics and argue to convince and exhibit their critical
Insert surname4
thoughts. They face decisions which affect their long term values academically and are intensely
curious.
During adolescent stage, people avoid becoming concrete thinkers to being abstract
thinkers to allow thought projections to the future, considering ideas and establishing goals
which are centrally to facts behaviors, questioning attitudes and values, and ability of thinking.
They enjoy learning skills in application to real life situations and problems. Intellectual
development varies with age and relies on developmental descriptions of intellectual products
and processes for clues on when certain intellectual accomplishment is to be achieved.
Very minimal behavior in infancy possess the degree of abstractness and orderliness
which can qualify it as cognitive or intellec6tual. Infant behavior is always defined as massive,
diffuse and all or none in its occurrences. Intellectual development during the first years enables
children to respond to verbal stimuli and make appropriate responses.
How does marriage change through the aging process? Discuss how an “Empty Nest” can
effect the dynamics of a marriage.
For better or for worse, today’s marriages are not the same as they used to be. Family is
as important in future life as during childhood. It is a crucial support group which forms a sense
of belonging and joy through expressions of love and affection and the together shared moments.
Family also provides help such as financial or help with chores though out the life change. The
quality of a relationship in a family is established in early marriage years and parenthood and
goes over to later years. People with positive relationships and happy marriages with the children
enjoy their family lives during their later years.

Elderly persons with strong relationships in their often turns to their family members for
help whenever they require such. As the old people experience life losses, such as deaths of close
people, and change in mobility or health, they may ask for family support. The time with family,
help with business and other chores and love expressions become even important and elderly
adjust to the major life changes.
For older married couples, there various ways in which they enjoy their lives and grow
together; like the retirement experience together with the increased leisure time and travel may
be rich whenever shared. Spouses likely give extra ordinary companionship and support when
mobility and health decline and a partner require assistance.
An empty nest can bring freedom and improvement in a relationship. They offer marital
happiness and reduced household duties on women and which is a common source when it
comes to marital conflicts.
Discuss the issues that surround end of life care and euthanasia. Under what conditions do
you think euthanasia is acceptable? Do our attitudes toward death change with age? Why?
As individuals approach the end of their lives, those together with their families face
decisions and tasks which involve many choices and which range from easy decisions to an
extremely complex decisions. They may be spiritual, psychosocial, practical, medical or
existential in nature. Dying individuals may make decisions on the way they would like to
expend their limited energy and time. Some may want to reflect on life meaning while others
may want to get into planning rituals after or before their death.
Insert surname6
All end-of-life medical decisions and choices have complex psychosocial ramifications,
components or consequences with significant effect on suffering and the quality of dying and
leaving. There are ways of bringing on death to persons in end-of-life situation. Although it is
suicide, which can be defined as self killing. Individuals kill themselves for many reasons such
as mental health problems. The suicide situation here known as euthanasia can be applied to
relieve people from suffering and pain. Most individuals who request it fear pain, being burden
to others or social isolation.
Recently, many pro-euthanasia advocates have been advocating that respecting individual
rights to self determination and autonomy means that a competent adult should have a right to
death at their selected time and hence the state has no authority of preventing such persons from
doing so.
Legalizing euthanasia leads to deaths together with dying to lose moral context within
which they should be looked into. Maintaining such moral context is very important in this aging
population and increasingly scarce costly health care resources leading to increasingly difficult
ethical decisions.
The only part which is remaining is on the additional points. kindly you can give five minutes so that I complete and send. THANK YOU.
