What’s the appeal of immortality? It doesn’t make sense at all.

Some say they want to see humanity progress to the point of space exploration. They say they want to help a lot of people. They say life rocks and they want to spend more time with it. They say they want to experience everything in the world.

Those are perfectly understandable.

But, wanting to be immortal for those reasons only? That’s a long shot.

Immortality would make you insane. You’re alone. People you cherish will die.

Well, I think you wouldn’t go insane if you made an echo chamber of good things for yourself while being intentionally ignorant of the nasty shit of the world.

You would, without a doubt experience, more of reality not just its good side. Be it wars, unnecessary conflicts because of personal interest, repeating patterns of horrible things, traumas, murder, and other things.

There’s a high chance that your motivations would change as you experience more things. People change motivations and reasons in a couple of months, let alone centuries or millennium.

A higher chance of being indifferent. A totally different perspective from your first days as an immortal.
