Title: Would you want to live for ever
Post by: waspy on 14 December 2008, 18:58:57
I was having a think earlier about life etc & i was thinking what it would be like to live for ever & no matter what happened you couldn't die. Something i would not like to do for various reasons.

Would you like to live for ever or are you happy with the way it is?
What would be your reasons for both?
Thoughts please ;)

Largely depends on the state of the old bod and mind ----- would I live forever in an arthritic frame?  Never. Would I give it a go built like Duncan Macloed (sp) -- maybe!

Conditions for living forever would be perfect physical and mental health too !!!!!  And a lot of luck ... a lifetime or two in the sh*t could be tedious, to say the least  ::)

i see a spiritualist, 200 miles away once as a laugh, woamn told me things nobody could tell me but a handfull of people,and spoke of a friend who died a week earlier who nobody knew but myself.was not only shocked but in a right state after.

so in answer to the question,im happy with life but id be happy enough if i was told i had a week to live.

I would have been two years ago -- but now I want to be here for the young'un!

I didn't mind actually being "gone" -- but the method of passing would be of some concern !!!!

Would I like to live forever.......no thanks. :'(

Do I believe in life after death......no sorry ......lights out...thats it. :'(

But I do very much believe in life before death.......and a lot of people don't get that sadly. :y :y :y :y :y :y

I saw one a few years back (Jenny Bright) & she told me things about my brother i didn't even know, it wasn't until i spoke to my mum later that evening that i understood. Strange how they see what they do.
In a strange way i'm kinda looking forward to going & to see my bro again, i've missed him over the years :'( He was older than me by 6 years & always looked out for me as i grew up & sometimes i think he still does.
There's some things i could tell you that would make your back tingle about my ex wifes little lad & his imaginary friend (uhm, not so imaginary). Spooky

Perfect health and mind - until I was tired of life.

The future could be very exciting

I'd like to live as long as i'm independant. I don't mind getting old & trading in the Beastie for a mobility scooter, & my house for a flat but the day i can't feed or myself or wipe my own arse then take me out the back & shoot me. Anything after that is undignified.

yes ,just so i would know if we really are alone in the universe or to see if space flight would become the norm .After finding out the answer to those questions I'd happily pop me clogs So long as we don't find out in the next 50-60 years that is  ;D ;D ;D

Speaking as someone who has suffered from quite serious depressive illness for the last 48 years, I would say that, on the whole, taking all things into consideration, looking at the pros and cons, I don't think I really want to live forever :(
