Immortality

A friend brought up the topic of youth, and the ability to remain young forever & it got me thinking. What would I do if I had the chance to remain young forever? Would I choose to stay young & never age or would I live life as it should be and continue on, aging like a "normal" person? Well, I think it is truly hard to choose. My selfishness wants to hold on to the eternal youth/ beauty but my mind can't help but question "Why were we created like this if we were meant to live forever?" There must have been a reason why humans were given the ability to age...Shouldn't one live life the way it's "meant to be" instead of trying to alter it to suit our wants?! But then again, wouldn't it be great to live the life of a twenty year old forever? Always stuck in the period everyone calls the best of one's life...The time when you feel invincible & remain creative & careless, with the mind of an adult but the soul of a teenager. A time when one still believes in dreams...When once you want something, you will do anything to get it...I think that although life was created this way, I'd still choose to be youthful because I love feeling that freedom, when no one can bring you down no matter what they say or do! If only one can do this without breaking any important rules & have to worry about the consequences that come with this life-altering decision.
