Give me some good weed and yes, that could entertain me.
Quote:My point: after <arbitrary number> books, it takes a really special/unique/well-written book to entertain.
I get that, and it is true.
Quote:You would be doing for sake of doing, and as your friends died out one by one: it'd cease to matter. Your connections to this world will fade out, and you will be alone. Nothing to hold onto for perspective... and one day: you'll start to forget. Your passions will dry up... until not one <book> in the universe will interest you any longer. Today you are entertainable... 500 years from now, you will be nearly impossible to entertain.
I like to hope that, as time goes on, there will be more and more new ways to entertain one's self as new technologies are invented. I don't think I could go forever without being bored, but I think I could last more than 500 years.
As far as my connections to this world, I don't have many close ones, and for the most part, people come and go. I've never had a problem with this, and I imagine I could go on not having a problem, though losing my immediate family would be a giant exception.
I may be totally wrong, but I would like the opportunity to find out.
Don't get me wrong... I'd like more time. I just don't want that time forced upon me well past any point I'd enjoy.
