I am deaf so I am very isolated, but I never have a dull moment. I study scripture and read christian fiction. I spend a lot of time on this site. I have a large wonderful prayer shawl that helps me close out the world and spend time listening to the Lord in deep meditation.
Wow. That is even more amazing, if I was deaf I would definitely not be enjoying a single moment. Goes to show people are just built different.

If you were an atheist, what would you consider a long life for a person to have lived?
90, but isn't it exciting to know that we in Christ shall never die? An eternity of happiness with Jesus and our bros and sisses in Christ! :)

Yes it is exciting. 😊 And I agree that 90 is a long life, but the Bible says of our life in Christ,

the one who dies at a hundred will be thought a mere child; the one who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed. Isa.65:20

Our perspective of long life changes because of our knowledge of Jesus.

No, they are not when they belong to God. God leads me, God gives me the ways to enjoy life. The world of the spirit is a fascinating world, and very different from our material world. Just learning about the ways of God brings enjoyment.

My avatar is a photo of one of my paintings. When we loose something in our life, God gives us something else to replace it.
