This is the question Santiago asks of Manolin. From his question, we can infer that Santiago is alluding to the fact that as an old man.... he doesn't want to waste a moment... he wants to live while he can.

This is, of course, my opinion... what do you think?

Actually no, the old man wakes up early because if he wakes up early he will be stronger. He also believes that the person should have a system in his/her life. This habit is great because it will keep you healthy and it will make a difference in achieving the goals
