See for yourself: ::VIDEO:: ►http://ift.tt/1wTkjSp “Here’s a tricky one that I worry about. Everybody wants to live longer and I don’t know what that means, to live longer. Suppose you could live 10,000 years. Then, what’s your urge to get out of bed the next morning. There’s no time pressure on you to achieve, to accomplish, to love. When you give flowers to a loved one on a special occasion, are they made of plastic so they live forever? No, they are made of flower petals. There’s a pistil, there’s a stamen, there’s a stalk, and that will all die. And it’s the fact that it dies that empowers our emotions to appreciate it that much more. So, the finiteness of life forces me to appreciate every sunrise that I wake up every day. And if I live forever, I don’t know that I would have those emotions or those feelings or the sense that the day awaits my energy.” – Neil deGrasse Tyson If I were to live forever, what would be my reason to get out of bed? The same reason I have now. Because life is awesome. Death is actually what makes life meaningless because if you have to die, then what's the reason to accomplish anything if death will erase it? Just think about it. In the end everything is "sound and fury, signifying nothing", as Macbeth said. Life is a cruel joke if death is inevitable... BUT, we do have a chance to live forever, so we have hope. The biggest obstacle we face is AGING.
