Immortality

No not the Bee Gees song. Who wants to live forever? came on last night, and prompted a discussion about if anyone really wants that.  I think the conclusive answer was: no. Not here on earth anyway, where we would be forced to watch our loved ones, those closest to us, finish up their time before we do. Whilst the opportunity to do good is increased beyond measure, the pain that would be experienced along the way… unimaginable.

The strangest thing is that those who wish it,  often do so from a lack of time to get everything they want done, done. I completely understand the busyness of life.. but more and more am beginning to find there is a LOT of time that we just don’t know how to use yet. Sometimes all that is needed is to take a step back, take a breather, and just watch life for a while.
