Deep Meaningful Life Questions of the Day -
1- If you could drink from a magical well and live forever without aging, would you? What age would you like to be stuck at ?
2- Is it better to die before your loved ones, leaving them behind, or to watch others die first and have to grieve?
my family's watching Tuck Everlasting downstairs. I like that story but I hate the ending. If I could live forever and never change by drinking magical water, I would drink it right now. Imagine all the things you could do - devote your whole life to something and still have infinite lifetimes to do other things. You could go everywhere that you wanted to go, try everything that you wanted to try, and never have to hurry. Your body wouldn't betray you, you'd always stay young and on the cusp of possibility. And that whole bit about not wanting to live forever because you'd have to watch the people you love grow old and die ... I think that's dumb. Its selfish to want to die first so that you don't have to see others die. Anyway, that's my opininon.

i'd rather see my friends die, than die myself. but hmmm... thinking about it.... maybe die first.

2 - As tempting as it is to die, my associates can do it first. As for the people I care about, they can take a drink too.
