Would I Live Forever?
Would I live forever?

If the opportunity were to present itself, would I live forever? I have contemplated many times on this question before this assignment. Have I found an answer? That is for you to find out, by reading this essay. The question has many interesting points because there are advantages and disadvantages to living forever. Obviously there are some advantages to living forever. With an unlimited amount of time on the Earth, you can discover each place of the world. You can visit the Bahamas, Mexico, China, the North Pole… You may master every sport and every hobby, read every book and, you can know the real events of history. You would probably find the opportunity to be famous. You could do anything this world has to offer. The disadvantages of living forever are maybe few but they are very strong points. If I could live forever, I would get bored after maybe 250 or 300 years. That would be plenty of time to do everything this planet has to offer. I would also be curious to know what happens after death. Near the end of your life, you are going to have to wonder what there is after death. Heaven? Hell? Reincarnation? Emptiness? Personally I would choose not to live forever. Because of my curiosity, I want to know what happens after death. Many people have died and entered fights because of this subject, so I would like to know the truth. To add on my point, living on this Earth too long would bore me. Because of this choice, I would have limited time on this Earth, so I would like to happily and successfully live each minute on this planet so I can leave this world with my goals

    I would not be able to bare the news of living for a remaining time of 365 days. First, I would announce it to my family members and loved ones. We would then plan out our days so we can spend as much time together. I would announce it only to my family so they can prepare themselves for what is coming, my death. I would leave bank accounts for both of my nephews so they could afford to attend a school of their choice. I would purchase a mansion for my mother in the Dominican Republic so she could quit her job and live happily with a monthly allowance. I would buy a flight for my father and I to Cuba so we can both travel back to his home country together. My father would then demonstrate where he used to live when he resided there. We would…

    If you ask me, immortality is totally overrated. If you are immortal, sure you enjoy the delights of the fruits of divinity. And what might be some of the remarkable benefits you get to enjoy? You no longer have to worry with cosmetic cures like botox (so you can have some esteem and earn some respect when you visit the Hindu goddess Kali), or expensive skin serums (no need to travel to Egypt and bring Nefertiti back to life for her priceless epidermal rejuvenation tips), or a face lift (so you don’t have to chuck out all that gold currency, you can horde it all for yourself), because you can remain impeccably young and hearty, indefinitely. Age is only relative to the risings and fallings of the sun rather than being relative to various parts of your body sagging in disproportionate ways, with the unfortunate consequences of cellular oxidation and overworked and hyper-extended mitochondria. Poor feeble mortals! You will be able to bench press three hundred ten and run a marathon in under four hours at the centurial age of three hundred like you did when you were in your so-called-prime-of- life. Come on, you’re a stallion, you still have the stamina to tap that ethereal handiwork of your fleshly splendor for hours on end and still have enough energy to run up and down the stairs until Ishtar, your marital bliss partner, you polyamorous-on-the-sly beast, calls you outside to enjoy her newly cultivated lotus garden. However, after awhile, this immortal stuff becomes overly routine and you will probably want to take a candid dive off Mount Olympus to escape the monotony.…

    You are making a decision. The most terrifying, gut-wrenching decision you will ever have to make; death or death? This decision you are hypothetically making stares so many people in the face each day. What would you do if you were told you had only six or less moths to live? On top of knowing you have so little time, you, in those few months, will experience severe pain, discomfort, and emotional distress beyond comprehension. Therefore, I ask you again, death or death?…

    Also, the survival of the human species when I think of the inevitable death of every human being. It would be sweet if we could live all the way to infinity, but we are going to have to build a Death Star because the sun, at some point, is going to engulf the planet. That is probably not for a billion years. We'd be lucky if we make it that long. We need to build about a million Death Stars and spread them all over the galaxy. I will leave it at…

    I would consider this question not completely answered until my time here on earth is complete. Especially given the circumstances of my life at this moment, I'd have to say that if I were to die tomorrow, I would not be satisfied or serene with how things turned out. So let’s pray I have some time to reflect on my past mistakes, learn from them, and try to use them constructively in helping others so they don’t have to go through what I have during my twenty four years of living.…

    Moreover, overpopulation would give rise to destruction of forests. Natural forests act as reservoirs of carbon and they release fresh oxygen. Do we owe it to ourselves or our children to stop breathing the pure, fresh air and instead live in an environment with copious amounts of air pollution just for the sake of living longer? And I would be amiss to not state that life extension would result in unnecessary congestion which, almost indefinitely would cause more pollution in public areas. Another objectionable issue of life extension would most certainly be competition between the new generation and the old generation. Due to enhanced minds, bodies and knowledge of their profession, older people will be able to maintain their corporate positions and young, qualified people would be left depleted of their opportunity. This would cause societal unrest because the youth will not have means to support themselves. It could cause many people to resort to crime and theft to make ends meet.
