Nah, I'd be pretty happy if I reached 30 tbh. Though I'd rather die in a way less painful than AIDS...
Weirdly enough I've always felt that I would rather live to 40-50 then die, instead of becoming really old.

I don't wanna be an old helpless person who's brain and body slowly diminishes while your family and loved ones watches.

I used to think so too... now I'd like to reach 90 and gain ETERNAL POWER AND KNOWLEDGE (conquering the world afterwards would be a nice bonus).

I'll have a lot of experience and memories and I'll spread them all to the younger generations. One random student, listening to my stories, will write a book about me. It will be translated in 32 different languages. Three years after the release of the book I will have to die as a happy man and become a legend.

FIN

I wanna live to a really old age because then you can get away with practically anything.

No?

I imagine most people have accepted reality for what it is, I still enjoy dreaming about the impossible still. I'm not looking forward to the day where my mind will be too beaten down by reality and I no longer dream, I'm on my way there already... :(

I want to live forever. I want my body to stay young and my mind to keep learning about the infinite knowledge this world has to offer.
See, the thought of living forever is absolutely horrible. I mean, what do you do once you've done everything? What happens after the Earth eventually disintegrates billions of years from now? You have to watch as literally everyone you ever cared about dies, and as time goes on, sure you might make new friends, but then they all die as well, and you're left alone... forever...

Read "I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream". You can read it online for free, and it'll take about half an hour, if that.

I alternate between having really optimistic hopes for the future, to having literally no hope whatsoever. And the periods of hopelessness are completely random too - about a month and a half ago I had one that totally destroyed my self-confidence before my driving test, and because of that I was even more nervous than normal and failed. :mad:

I try to focus on the dreams that I actually have a chance of achieving. For instance, the one I had which was 'get into university' has now been fulfilled, and it's now replaced with 'get a first-class honours at said university'.

I want to live forever.

I also want the ability to grant other people the same ability.

That way I don't have to watch my loved ones die.

And since living forever means we can't die, we can be all superman and fly through space and ****.

You'll accept it eventually(ofc anyone will be scared when they see it coming). I don't care to think about it much, 'cause it'll happen whether ya want it to or not. Could randomly be today, tomorrow or fifty years from now.

I just want to do as many interesting and meaningful things with my life as I can before it does.

I have 01982375409871895608 health problems so it'll probably come sooner rather than later.

Yay genetics.

Also totally not removing that 0 from in front of that number.

A life of enternity leads to a torment of sadness. Watching people you love and care about die all the time cause they will die eventually. Humans should not living above their life span. Death should not be feared. It's just telling you that your time in this world is up, just like everyone one else. If everyone was to never die, this world would be cluttered. And it would be more horrible then when people were dieing. You do what you can now, and set a path for the next cycle of life. Just like those over the years have for us.
