If We Live Forever

Talking about life, it's always changing. We have certain things for everything. From birth to death, we all have many situations; sometimes sickness and sometimes irritation, sometimes happiness and sometimes joy. Everybody has a fear of death as it is a natural truth for everyone, every single living being. But what if someone discovers the formula that would enable us to live forever: would that be a blessing or a curse?

 

We already have a long life to go but if we live forever. Will it be a new and amazing thing which will develop the whole world or be a curse? Shortly after people stop to die, firstly the children will be affected. The reading time will be much more and adulthood will also change with the age difference. In my opinion, life cycle changes with the ecosystem having a negative impact in a scientific way by the increase in population which will increase the chance of global warming as the resources are going to be exploited more due to the growth in population. Now, in this time period, if humans are born, they will be suffering from a long childhood which will indeed be boring. With the increase in many crises, many people will commit crazy things like jumping off a building, lying at the railway line, and other stuff as they will not get hurt and also not die. If it's not like it and the age is going to pass out day by day, people can be worried since at one point, they will be old and henceforth, they will be weak. After this day, we are going to suffer forever. Time will then reassert the importance of death to people. After this situation, life will be like a situation of neither dead nor alive. After a few years only, we will become like Zombies. This can be affected by evolving humans into some other creatures and then again that cycle will repeat as humans are only allowed to live forever. I said that by transformation the human will not be human and nothing like human would be on the earth, which will again recover the ecosystem and also the life cycle.

 

What is the middle time? All the people are going to have a lot of problems as there will not be enough land for every single population which is going to grow every single day. A human needs a lot and many things for survival, like woods from the trees to make a house for fire and also for furniture. Like that only they also need many types of metals for the development and all the other things to make for the housing. They will also need wool from the animals for the clothes. Because of the huge population of humans and the animals, we do not get enough space to live. The ecosystem would be harmed and many animals would lose their lives and new species would not be found. There will also be a lot of new factories and when people do not get enough places to work, the population would increase more. Hence, global warming will also increase day by day and the greenhouse effect will destroy the whole world from which humans can also die now, so they will soon be roaming around the space in an empty vacuum with no sound and no one. Also, they will be flying out of the galaxy. By this, tsunamis will occur on the earth, the buildings will be destroyed, and all the animals will also die forever and never be found again.

 

Hence, if the people live forever, it will affect the world in a worse possible way as the ecosystem will be imbalanced and the many species of animals will also be extinct. If humans would live forever, it would also create problems for them to live in peace.
