This program is interesting, it provoke some deep reflection about growing old and death which I would have otherwise not think about as it is such morbid subject but it’s real. It provoke me to think deep and searched my real objective and directive in life in my later years or may be NOW. How I should live and for REAL purpose. Thank you all and well done."
