I Had An Epiphany

I know why people die.
Not because of old age, but because of loneliness ..and diseases.
Here's my thought process. When people get older and their childrean grow up, move out and never call, they begin to feel that sadness and izolation. Then when their spouses die, they grief and really start to feel that loneliness. The taste of life disappears, especially if they retire and get fewer and fewer human interaction. And they begin to feel worthless, start to move slower, they get out of their homes less and less, their bodies atrophy and they slowly get on their path to die.

So moral of the story is, when you victimize yourself and stop living, you die.

It does not have to be diseases or loneliness. It's just life cycle to eventually die.
