TCM and mortality

Every time I watch an old movie on TCM I am accutely conscious of my mortality.  It's very disconcerting to watch a young Barbara Stanwick and a young Fred MacMurray flitting away on the screen, only to google them and find out they died 20 or 30 years ago at 80 or so.

I then look in the mirror and it hits me.  I am getting very old.

  2. All I'm saying is life flies by pretty quickly. My father was born 113 years ago, my mother 103. It just boggles the mind!
