Who would not desire to live in this beautiful world of ours forever? In spite of all those trials and tribulations of life, none of us would desire to perish from this earth so that our problems come to an abrupt END.With all its shortcomings,worries galore and heaping up issues....all of us wish to exist here forever.Even a nonagenarian would not wish his life on earth come to a full stop.Our craving for more comfortable living for more and more days never cease.......

Life on Earth would all be enjoyable inspite of all the trials and tribulations only if one thing is there. Sound health and good youth. I do not see why a nonagenarian who is beset with so many diseases and on medications would want to continue the "useless" life. I am clear about this: I would rather die and be reborn if I have further desires to be fufilled- for desire fulfillment would need a healthy body and good financial wharewithal. In short one could live as long as one has a purpose for living on, and is able to be engaged in it.

You are right, sudipta! I too wouldn't want to be reborn. But to dislike life on Earth is also not the way of one deserving mokSha. So, I said what I did. If I remember well, er, wait yeah I think we must go ahead and discuss cuz no one else seem to be believing that Indians fall too easily for chaaplUsi(sycophancy)!

Maybe you are correct but somehow I feel that I would not want to continue forever with my life. I am not living in the lap of luxury and whatever I have today has been due to very hard work and sometimes I feel so tired. There’s absolutely no way I can increase my earnings or have a more comfortable lifestyle or fulfill my every desire so for me the best would be to do my work as long as necessary and then to take a graceful exit.

I think we live in a beautiful world. I am very grateful that I live in Australia.
I dont know if I want more comfortable living, but I would like to meet a partner sometime in the next few years.
What I love about this world are the many beautiful scenes. There are some great people too.
However, I think for others, it is not a beautiful world, because they live in poverty or a war zone.
I will include a photo here of a nature scene in australia.

I've got news for you, guy. There's another life after this one with God and its a lot better. You have to follow God, anyhow, and not do any selfish things otherwise your next existence will not be very joyfull. You will be in with all the other selfish people in a pretty awful and selfish place. Think about it. Its worth your time.

Yes we all would love to live forever on a beautifull shores in a paradisic place.I think this is very possible and as a matter of fact I believe that many of us will be spending time in such conditions and and not in heaven as was thought before.

You're right. I myself love life and living. Though the trials and tribulations can take a lot out of a person most the time, I think they're good in a way. Because how would we know what happiness is if we don't experience pain along the way. We would have no basis for happiness if we never experienced pain. Life would be really boring without the bad stuff.
All we need is to keep a positive perspective on life right? As long as we keep positive, we can overcome any obstacle that comes in our way.

Yes ,no one want to die ,but there always some who don't want to live forver.I think we should give the chance to the new life to suffer life.Some day we must go ,we should say to the word that I know what is life and I have experenced it.I think I will say that with smile.LOve your life and do regret.
