Would You Want to Live Forever?

ESSAY ON -WOULD YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER ?

Would you want to live forever ? My position on this topic is equal upon

yes and on no. This question has puzzled me and many others. Many things

affect me, and make me think that I would, however some point towards the

rejection of this statement. Throughout the years, the eye of the public

and the eye of god have witnessed many happenings and events. From the

dawn of man, to Martin Luther King, from the discovery of fire to the

discovery of nuclear energy. As the world turns, mother nature takes its

course and plays a vital role in the construction of new generations.

Facts and ideas get passed along from one generation to another, so if one

was to live forever they would be able to witness everything. From

discoveries, to inventions, serial killers to world leaders and watch

their family grow through the ages and eventually die.

What are the benefits of living forever ? Besides watching human

life and the universe evolve, the person can personally see the change of

the world, its development and the swaying of attitudes among all. The

future holds answers that can only be answered by time, but every being

has his or her time, the time to die, and that time will arrive

eventually. But imagine outliving all, the possibilities are uncanny.

This wonder, fantasy is the same concept of Peter Pan and Never Never

Land. To never age and grow old, to see loved ones go by, friends and

family. Since the possibilities of what one can do are limitless, then

this state of living forever is a sort of never ending role playing game,

and every kid living on this earth, with a limited lifespan knows that

sooner or later you will get bored of the game and want to call it quits.

But, how will one call quits to a life, a life which in theory would seem

to become boring after experiencing everything this world has to offe!

r. Wouldn't that be the greatest thing about living forever ? That your

enjoyments of sports, foods, friends, and loved ones would be renewable.

That when one thing goes another thing arrives.

Have you ever experienced death ? Obviously not personal but in

the family or of someone close to you. It's hard to let go, and hard to

put your thoughts and feelings about that person behind you. People will

tell you to go on with your life, and that it's all a part of life, living

and dying. Imagine experiencing the hell of losing someone over and over

and over and over again. The pain and agony that you would have to suffer

through are agonizing just thinking about it. Ah first love. The first

date, the first holding of hands, the first kiss, and the first death. Ah

second love. The second date, the second holding of hands, the second

kiss, and the second death. Visualize going through these stages every

century, knowing that you will never meet your beloved up in heaven, and

knowing that every other woman or man you see, you will feel as though you

are betraying the others. The whole fantasy of love and relationships
