How do you tell someone you are physically immortal? And when you do…what does it say to them? Is it easier just to be what you are rather than say who you are, especially, when strange terminology is involved? But how will anyone know there are people on the planet who feel they can live forever? If we don’t speak about it, who will know?
Physical and immortality are two words not often spoken or related together. Physical is easy enough. We all know what that means. Touch it, feel it, smell it, hear it, see it. Immortality…well, almost everyone believes in immortality. Most, however, believe you must die to achieve it. Here lies the tricky part; hooking up the word immortality with physical.
What is that, most ask? Well, you know…where the body…this body never dies. It lives forever…just keeps going. Well, how do you do that? If I could simply hand over a copy of the special edition of 10 Ways to Stay Alive, everything would be easy. Everyone today seems to relate to a formula…a pill…a workshop…some nailed down, money back guarantee with all the how-to steps included.
The philosophy of “let me know when you figure it out” seems to be trendy. Some will just reply, “Good luck with that”. Where is the vote of confidence and encouragement, I ask? And I wonder…isn’t life so precious, so great that you would never want to lose it? Why the lack of enthusiasm? I can never understand this. Is the doubt so strong in the mind, that it takes away the desire to dare to be the first? Where is our pioneering spirit? Have we lost all motivation to achieve greatness? Or is it the fear of the possibility? After all…What would we do if we lived forever? Will there be too many people on the planet? Who wants to be old and sickly and live forever? All “excuses” surface and with haste and determination, the decision is made… not even to try. Is humanity so tired of living, it would rather die?
Understandably, physical immortality is a huge concept. What exactly do you have to lose? Heaven? You can’t lose what you don’t have. You lose your life…your family…friends…everything you have! And if you do live forever…what can you gain? You gain everything. You gain an unending life filled with the future. The future holds the unknown, the exciting, the better and much more. It is not acceptable to stop…held hostage by the limitations of our own concepts and thoughts. This is the reason death even exists. Never believing we can live!
