The number 100 is a significant number for us as humans. No matter the quality of man or woman, we cannot help but to acknowledge the life of the person, who has achieved or surpassed this mark. For me, the number 100 represents a lifetime and also perfection. We are taught very early on that a score of a 100 represents excellence. For spiritualists and numerologists, the number 100 has even a deeper meaning particularly, as it pertains to the Angelic realm. I cannot speak on that aspect of the number 100, but I will say that many of the poems I wrote were gifted to me—meaning, there was a deeper call to write about a particular idea or subject beyond myself. So, that is the long and short of it, and why the book had to be titled, 100 Years to be Lost.
