According to Osbert Sitwell, who is a famous writer and a nature lover mentioned that 70 years is considered the best time of life.

Because all the commitments of life are over and every man in that age is ready to love nature and its magic.

Those who are dying before 70 years are taking their problems into their hearts and they cannot sense peace throughout their lifespan.

According to sitwell, 70 years are the best years of life

Osbert Sitwell, who is a famous writer and nature lover, mentioned that being 70 years is considered the best time of life. because all the duties of life are over and every man in this age is ready to love nature and its magic.

Additional information:

In this autobiographical sketch, Sir Osbert Sitwell recalls his early experiences in his ancestral home and his travels here and there. He also gives us a better insight into the characteristics of his parents.

He begins by recalling the picnics he used to have with his family members by the lake. He and Edith leaned over the thick blue wall of the boat Davis rowed and could watch the fish flicker. He recalls how his father would sometimes carry him on a fast journey in a canoe, watched by Edith and Davis, who were jokingly smoking. After that, their mother also joined them. Although he did not take an active part in their games and such, he was, like a child himself, engrossed in the interests of his children and others.

Sir Obsert then begins to recall the lamproom of his house. Their Stephen, one of the servants of Sitwell's house, lit the wicks which showed the figure to the others and the rising from the chairs and tables, but not to him, for he was blind. He couldn't even read, yet he never made a mistake in putting things in the right place.

There was a night watcher in his room every night. At that time there was only candlelight and darkness everywhere. He was afraid of the night and was always afraid to be alone there. In that dark place he could not sleep comfortably until his mother got up and stayed close to him. She told him stories and about her cousin's behavior at the dinner table. He also told her about the behavior of the servant Henry at the dinner table. He added that he once overheard a conversation between the Sitwells. As scared as he was, he loved the atmosphere of the place. His mother stayed with him until he fell asleep. But after she left, he had dreams that were horrific in nature.

The whole narrative thus reveals the weak mind of man. These memories remind us that life as lived by the young Sitwells in the early years of the 20th century seems as distant now as it did long ago.
