Life Expectancy Of 40

Yes, I do remember that movie and was actually thinking of it by the time I finished your second sentence. If I knew when I was going to die, I'm afraid I would spend all my time obsessing on it and wasting my time worrying if I was wasting my remaining time. Whoo! a vicious circle. I do believe there is an afterlife. At least I really hope there is, but I would not be willing to voluntarily end my life to move on to the next one. Of course in the movie, it wasn't all that voluntary.

yes, yes, and yes...I would be changing so many things. I would have such a long list. It would be from little things on up to bigger things. I would have waited longer to get married. I would have made alot of gifferent decisions. I would have avoided some people toatly. I think I would have spent more time with others. I would have changed timing and course on many things.

I think I would go crazy knowing I would die at 40. My daughter would only be 16 then. I love Logan's Run and this post has made me want to see it again but hubby doesn't like it.

Life at 40 will be at mid of the responsibilities i have to share vid some body n to the extent of best possible way n i will be less aggressive n calmness might b due to experience should be the key. Rest still have 15 years for such test to be done......

So are you saying that I would know in my new life what I know now? I guess that would be a little weird to be very young and have the wisdom of a 40-year-old. But it would keep me from making some really stupid mistakes that I made the first time around. However, if I had to start over without any knowledge, I would say no thank you! Been there done that! HA!

feels like a fantasy game of having a reset button, saving and loading option. However, life is just one shot. Take it or lose it. we only have one chance to live, what i believe it that one should never regret about his or her own life at their end of their living days. Perhaps, we are actually practicing this lifetime for a ream eternity that is awaiting for us. Lets learn and experience everything that we need that is positive of the preparation of our future life. welcome to wherever you are!

Well, I'm well over 40, so let's pretend the age to die is 102. Now, if I live to be 102 and must die and go to another world...hey! That's sounds like the promise of some religions!

havent seen that yet...but yes maybe i will like it to happened..so that i can right any mistakes i have done....how about you??

Hey .. I'm too old for this world .. !! Wolfie dear, can I go off topic just for a moment please .. because what you put reminds me of an article I was reading the other day that really shocked me .. here we are in the 21st Century .. and yet in Zimbabwe women have an average life expectancy of just 34 years and men on average do not live past 37, also people in Swaziland and Sierra Leone are not expected to live to 40 .. it's unbelievable isn't it .. but sadly it's true .. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/4890508.stm Back on topic, in a weird way I did actually change my life completely at 40 and started to live 'another' life .. that was when I got kicked out of work for being disabled and my world suddenly changed completely ... I have changed somethings from my 'old' life to this 'new' life .. I no longer work myself to a standstill for a few pennies more each week .. and had I known what I know now I would never have done that in the first place .. !!

That would be cool. If things were that way, I don't think people would bother to marry and have kids. The thing about being able to live up to around 80 is sometimes we tend to think that life is eternal. In that manner, we become selfish and unkind to others. It was in this book A Purpose Driven Life I think that the author says people are so concentrated on their temporary lives here on Earth that they forget the eternal lives waiting for them in paradise.

ummmm Life Expectancy Of 40, Thats kinda what mine was as I got my Cancer at 40! So I had to start a compleatly new way of life from that age...

i don't know because im afraid of dying but reliving forever is something that could urge me to do it

i don't know if i could do that because i am afraid to die but maybe considering we would live again forever

No I wouldn't like that. I like my life the way it is. I am what I am because of what I learned. It will be too many ntoes to read, mistakes I didn't want to do etc.. complicated. Might as well a vampire bites me and I live forever..

Well, on one hand I'd be ok with moving on but on the other I wouldn't because I have kids and they are not finished growing up so I would not want to leave

that would be great i think.cuz sometimes i feel so fed up with life. but i think in such a case everybody would actually have no intimacy with this life as everybody knows that they life heer would end when they r 40. many people r still with lots of hopes and dreams when they r 30,40 etc..so if it so happens then nobody will have any regard for this earth. no1 would ever feel for anything , i feel everybody would feel anyway their time is less and so would spend time enjoying in this earth.i wonder if this would be good or bad.

Yes, I think is some one move to the parallel world he/she will be of same age. As all the dimensions run parallely . But i think the surrounding time may differ, may be here is 2007 and in other world it may be 3007. Who knows.

i wish that was the case, there would be no tension or stress in life, because one would prepare to die as they no 40 is round the corner.. its not like loosing loved ones in a shock ...

I think i`m already in that parallel universe, you just said...lol

I didn't know this film but i'm gonna see it asap!! However i think past is unchangeable, even if we could turn back. I don't even know if it is a good or a bad thing, but i think it's true, and this is the reason: If future men could time-travel they should have changed some things in the past, just like the Holocaust, the atombombs on Hiroshima or Nagasaki and much more! Moreover those facts are still in the past so i think man will never be able to time-travel or to change facts in the past!
