Just turned 60 today, wondering why me?

I Just turned 60 today and I'm wondering why me? When almost all of the people I've known and loved are gone. Why am I still here? Am I special or just lucky. While serving I should have been dead a hundred times over, I just don't understand am I being punished?

Well, whether you are lucky or being punished is entirely however you perceive it.
If you see it as punishment though. You are making your life harder, less fulfilling.
Even at 60 there are many that have not survived as long as you. I say embrace it and enjoy for as long as you can. The other option is nowhere as appealing or satisfying.
Regardless, I hope you can be at least content.
