I've heard that immortality is the most sought after prize. One that is currently impossible to get. But it sounds good right? Never dying. Getting to do what you love forever. My question is would you really want to be immortal? Wouldn't that get incredibly boring after you doing EVERYTHING for eons? I mean sure it will take a long long time to become good at everything but remember time is not an issue now. Eventually your going to be a master at everything, and than what? What will you do after you tire of doing everything?

I would not want to be immortal because i get bored easily and living forever just seems like i would be bored for a really long time. And what if the people i really love arent immortal, i would have to sit around and watch them die. No thanks ill stick with mortality.

Immortality may seem as the most sought after prize only to people who are afraid of dying. Life has to have meaning to us and these meanings keep changing as we pass through different stages in life and we will run out of these a some point of time. Then what sense does immortality make ? Ask a person who is in his 80's if he would want to live for another 50 years.

It would be boring after awhile. It would be sad to watch all of your friends die. Not to mention immortality doesn't mean that you don't ever get sick or injured, could you imagine living with cancer or something for forever? Also how would you explain it to people to you're 2,000 years old without getting sent to the looney bin?
