The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.
It sure would be fun. You know, being able to live a life filled with historical episodes and being alive for a hundred years and more to tell it. Just imagine, for a second, imagine how life would be witnessing lots of eras and advancement in nature.
I have seen countless movies on immortality that just make me, for a second, want to live that life. But, is it worth it? There are tons of juicy reasons that make me think otherwise. I mean, why would I want to live a long life in loneliness when there's peace in death?
There was a movie I saw a few years ago titled, "In Time" and there's a scene right there which brought in a character who has lived so long that he just felt so tired of living life and that's because as humans, we are insatiable. We want this and that, but we don't want this and that as well.
Surely, immortality feels like a good deal. It is a very good deal, but if the people I love and care about won't be included in such a deal, then... There's no reason to live life in continuous pain. Burying my friends, my loved ones, families, and children all through numerous generations isn't cool. Trust me, it will be exhausting, and with each era that passes by, it'd be insane to say I won't lose a piece of my humanity.
...and that is what scares me the most. Not being able to feel pain, happiness, and more because I have seen it all and knowing life will continue pulling its strings of its deliberate acts is nothing I would like to be involved in.
I do believe, just like the quote has said, living a good life that generations to generations would remember is the main worth of immortality to me.
I would rather live a life worth remembering than live a thousand years in what I term, "Insanity". Relieving memories of the past again and again as another phase of the past presents itself is like cold water on my body. Though, I know that being immortal will be very interesting and I would surely gather more knowledge and may even be another young lass of an era's Einstein, still, I can't bear the pain it will bring.
What can I say, I am just another fragile sweet soul, and with this, I leave you a song by Jay z and Mr. Hudson titled, "Forever Young." I do hope I live forever in the heart of many who have seen my worth. That's the immortality I'll go for.

Thanks for reading and listening.
Peace be unto those who crave it and more to those who chase it away.
I agree with everything you say, what is life worth without your loved ones?
But there is something that strikes my mind: If we could choose the time to die, what would be the method and what would it be like?
When would be the best time?
It would just be a matter of finding the courage to face it and lose the fear of dying.
There would also be a lot of people who want to live in spite of all the reasons you stated...that's why we are so diverse.
That would be cool, I guess. Hehe, being able to choose these is very interesting, but sadly, life isn't that way. Lol.
Yeah, I know, and that's why we are all different . Thanks for stopping by.
The immortality you crave is so ideal. Living in the memories of our loved ones rather than watch them drop dead one after the other.
Yes, being alive in their hearts is more ideal than being alive and burying them all through countless generations.
Thanks for reading
You're welcome
Thanks, Mel
I agree with you, life is better if we are with the people we love. Without them our existence would be empty and lonely. Greetings and nice weekend.☺️
Yes, that's right. Without them, everything isn't right.
The love of not losing loved ones is the great obstacle to the immortality of preserving them, I think many would change their minds, have a great weekend, greetings
Yes, that's right. It sure is. Thanks for stopping by
I would rather live a life worth remembering, surrounded by my loved ones than living a lonely life of 'insanity'. I can't agree less.

Yeah, thank you 😊
Immortal they say? Life without my loved ones around me will be meaningless...I will always say no to a lonely life.
Thanks for recommending this forever life music..I love it so much.. maybe I should reherse it for vibes.. Been a decade I sang over there

All the way from dreemport

That's it ooo. A very big no! To it.
Once you sing it, make sure you add me to the beneficiary list of you font want my huge downvote on the post.
This is a friendly remainder of what you should do 😂😂😂.
Did you really? That peace sounds weird.
Trouble maker 😌
I love you too 😘
It's not worth it at all. Imagine seeing all your loved ones die while you're still alive (that will be the circle for everyone who will come into your life) life is nothing without the people you love.
#dreemport
Yes, life is nothing without the people you care about in it. Thanks for stopping by sweet dreemer
You're welcome
Everything you said is so valid. The immortality in view is simply a reflection of your present mortal life, and these things become a memorial when we depart. Thanks for the post!

Yeah, that's right. Thanks for stopping by as well.
