World Oldest Man

The oldest man in the world, Tomoji Tanabe (111 year old) from Japan has apologised for living so long. Can you believe that! This article hit me hard because my parents are entering there 80's and it disturbs me that anyone could think the elderly are unworthy of life. I ask myself why he feels this way and I conclude its the culture of our time where the young are praised and the old are discarded.
