Immortality is a curse

“What if I was immortal? “, a thought that almost everyone has had. But we don’t really think about it, the idea of immortality seems pretty good, but when we look closely and consider all the elements our perspective might change.
  Firstly, what do we understand by the term immortality? Immortality is the condition of being immortal, that means being resistant to death.
Immortality meaning: The state of being able alive forever, not dying.

  A person who lives forever is called an immortal. Although immortality is just an assumption, no one has been known to live forever, at some point in this world, we all have to meet our ends. But if being immortal was possible, would it be a good thing to be able to live forever?

   But when we look closely, we come to know that immortality is a curse. During his life, a human is known to live for about sixty to seventy years, during this time he goes through a lot of ups and downs. At some point in old age, with all the diseases and health problems, he starts to wait for death, seems like an awful thing to say but it is the truth. With all the pain and suffering, he just waits for it all to be over. It usually does get over, but if he were immortal, the suffering would never end.

There is a debate among people over the fact that is immortality is theoretically possible? Some say that it is possible to be immortal and some say otherwise. Scientifically speaking, immortality is a concept that the scientists are working really hard to achieve, but haven’t been able to so far. There is a possibility, that the scientists will achieve immortality in the future.

  The question we are focusing on is not when they achieve it, it is whether it is a curse or not. Being immortal lets one live forever, in the same body for an endless period of time. The same life, the same routine forever. Being immortal is like being stuck in a really boring place and not knowing how to break free. Yes, we can enjoy immortality for a few years, but then what, it will only make us feel like we are dragging ourselves from one point to another, but only with no point to end. At some time, when you get everything, you reach to a point where you cannot do anything more with your life, you’ll have no choice but to remain in the same body, trapped in this world. You’ll wait for death, but it won’t come. You’ll wish that it is all over because there’s nothing you can do, but death will not come. You’ll eventually get tired after a while and pray for it to be over. So it is not wrong to say that immortality is a curse. The lifespan of humans is for a reason, the life we have is for a reason. So live, what years you have on this earth to the fullest and don’t fall in the trap that is immortality. Immortality isn’t just living forever, it is also dying forever.
