Do You Want to Live to 100?

Fuck yeah, who doesn’t want to live long. If you ask me, a 100 is too young. That is just a century. I want to live longer. I want to be able to live forever. 100 is just not good enough. I want to be able to experience the world and the rest of the universe and there is just not enough time to do so.

But wait – I don’t want to be old and frail and weak. I want to be young forever. Well and not even this age of 38; I wanna be 29 forever. I dunno for some reason I like the age 29. It’s not the young 20s and not it’s the 30s yet but it’s a nice age to fall back on. So yeah, rewind 9 years back and keep me at that age. I wanna be young and live forever at that age. I want no illness to fall upon me and no injuries or harm to be inflected upon me.

But I also want that for all mankind and womankind! I want everyone to be able to live forever without the fear of being killed or falling ill and suffering. Universal healthcare. And how about not having to work and worry about money too? I always come back to that. We need to find a way to get rid of monetary concerns and instead work towards making sure that everyone gets adequate supplies of food, proper clothing, water, comfort, shelter etc etc. All the needs of humans fulfilled without the bother of money and worrying about it.
