Here's a 250 word rephrasing of the question:

Imagine being granted the ability to live forever, with eternal youth and vigor. An enticing prospect, is it not? But have you truly contemplated the profound implications of such a choice? While the allure of immortality may seem seductive at first glance, it comes with a heavy price – the inevitability of witnessing the passing of every soul you hold dear.

In this perpetual existence, the harsh reality is that you would be forced to bid farewell to loved ones time and time again, as they succumb to the inexorable march of time. Friendships, romantic bonds, and familial ties would become fleeting, temporary blips in your unending journey. Could you bear the agony of such repeated loss, the aching void left by each departure?

Moreover, consider the societal changes you would endure. Civilizations would rise and fall, cultures would ebb and flow, and the world as you know it would continually reshape itself, leaving you adrift in a sea of perpetual transformation. How would you adapt, maintain your sense of purpose, and find meaning amidst the ever-shifting tides of human existence?

Immortality is a double-edged sword, granting the gift of boundless time yet exacting a steep emotional toll. Before embarking on such a path, one must carefully weigh the profound consequences it would have on their psyche, their relationships, and their ability to find fulfillment in a world where everything they cherish is destined to fade away.

The above picture is mine.
