It's amazing what I learn watching movies all day long and
yesterday I learned something fascinating about the crazy monster that A.
Hitler was, in fact he didn't count his age as the years he lived since his
birth date, rather by the number of years he imagined he would live before his death!
In thinking of this, I put my own spin on it - of course -
and I can now say that I have 2 different ages, or that I lived a wonderful and
intensely productive life of 42 years (before the accident) and - just like
Hitler I'm about 40, simply because I expect to live this hell of pain and
immense losses for about 40 more years - that from the day of my birth put my
true age at 82.
I never thought that the monster of Hitler could ever give
such a good idea to me, but then again........I already posted that he used to
inspire me during my classes of German to have Hitler's tone and confidence in
what I was talking about in German language.
Therefore, if anyone will ever ask me how old am I, I'll
simply say that I'm 40 and in 3 years from now I'll be 37 and so on.....
