I don't mean you look forward to having a short life but would you rather die some day than live forever? Of course, if life were roses and euphoric all the time, no one in their right mind would ever want to die. But is life really all that great?
Infrastructural questions would abound if we were to live eternally. What would our retirement age be? How would that affect the budget? Especially if we aged at he same rate, thus making it still appropriate to retire at 65.
As much as I love life, and Earth, living forever would create more hardships than one realizes.
