It depends whether you are talking not aging or immortality.... I'd be happy with not aging....Originally Posted by Motoracer
Firestormer, if it was not aging, surely you could spend as long as you like trying to find what you really want to do.... Eventually you could enjoy it if you want to. Also, you'd probably have a different perspective on time - imagine an ant - short lived creature probably sees time passing slower than we do... The reverse might apply to you

I think that I would get bored shitless with immortality. Eternity is a very long time. Even if I had unlimited time I don't think I could ever learn to play the piano...

OK, here seems as good a place as any...
A chocolate fish to the first poster to tell me where my signature quote came from, and why it bears directly upon the question in this thread.
If you're dishonest and get the answer via Google, the guilty expression on your face as you hit the 'submit post' button will make it obvious to all and sundry.

Yeah I'm with you on that Handbrake.But I don't think I would like the part of seeing members of my family pass away generation after generation.
There was that (bad) movie that Robin Williams was in where he was a robot who eventually became human over hundreds of years (can't remember the name of the movie) - it kinda made me think that having a physical body that goes on forever wouldn't be so cool.
BUT! If I could live stay the age I am now though I'd be happy with that. I think I'm finally starting to get a handle on life!
My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

I'm guessing YOU'RE not going to recognise my signature quote, then.

Yes. I'm being a smarty pants. Cos that scenario seems to depict the christian going to heaven thing- seems boring to me. Personally I wouldn't mind living here on earth forever (when its all lovely and cleaned up, that is)

Even if it was just living in heaven or on the earth it will not be boring (you're thinking in the wrong dimension). I don't believe that's all there is to it though...there is MUCH more.
Mainly, I'm looking forward to no more sickness or dying, no more sin, and living in...yes you guessed it - perfect peace & harmony with others!

That was the movie where he went from a 'robot' to a human.
What does that have to do with your quote anyway JR or is I showin' how ignant I is.

Geez, for a post that started off with a few funny quotes, this has suddenly come over all metaphysical...

First impressions tell me that it's ACDC electrcity vs. Genesis 1:3. No idea who coined your phrase though?
