How do you measure a lifetime?
Heck, how do measure age?
The number in the post title was garnered from 70 heart beats a minute times 60 minutes in an hour, twenty four hours in a day, 365 days a year, 50 years. Times them all together and you get 110,376,000,000 heartbeats.
This is based on an average heart beat of 70 beats per minute. Which is subject to race, age, sex, activity level, activity that is being performed. Lots of variables here. Even Google says between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Let’s just call it 70.
My husband keeps trying to wind me up about growing older. I say so what?
I also say that age is a state of mind.
And I don’t care about age.
I just care about getting there.
Of course, I also tell people who tell me that being old is for the birds that it beats being below ground. By that I mean it beats being dead.
Capiche?
