Lifespan can be explained as the period of time of a person's life in which they live or expected to live. (Collins English Dictionary, 2017). According to Larkin (2013, p. 8), the life cycle is dened as different key stages from which a person passes through during the life. However, these stages are not only referred as childhood, adulthood and old age as the concept towards the meaning of age has been viewed differently between different cultures and different times. According to latest ndings, different life events in an individual's lifespan plays an important role in inuencing the physical, mental and psychological health of the person. The impact of life events can have different health impact on different people, for example in general, divorce can be stressful event for a person, but in some cases divorce can be more preferable option than a stressful marriage.
