@bijouxbroussard thanks, but the grim reaper is waiting for me! Hopefully I can have at least another 10 good years. There is a religious question I read i believe in the talmud, if you were given the option of never dying, never suffering the effects of aging, but to do so, no new babies would be born, what would your choice be?

@samueltyler2 That’s a tough one, but I don’t think I’d want to stay forever, watching my loved ones go. 🥺

@bijouxbroussard i think the question included everyone around you stayed alive with you, but still no newborns, no changing of life.
I asked this question to the Co-Pilot, AI in Microsoft:
Ethical Dilemmas:
Your scenario introduces an intriguing twist: living forever but only if no new babies are born. This raises ethical questions:
Would you choose immortality at the cost of preventing new life?
What impact would this have on society, relationships, and the human experience?

@Colonelmustardseed not anymore, relax and enjoy your youth for at least another 5 years!.

Hardly! There used to be an old saying - you'll know by the time you reach 40 if you're a failure at life or not. (Nonsense, of course).
No lie - your best years are still to come :D

Not the suicide part. Funny how you zeroed in on that...
He actually said more earlier in life. He said he didn't want to reach an age where someone was wiping his bottom for him.
It was the crank part - the disagreeable way he had of looking at the world. Women were a problem one had to deal with, etc

@RenFur well yeah i didnt read the whole thing. I read suicide and boredom and knew i had nothing in common with him.
dont most people want to be independent and not want others to have to take care of them? i wont be a burden on anyone and thats not me claiming people that age are just that, im just saying personally for me. I dont want to be that way and i want to be remembered as i am now

The first time i woke up and hacked up a cat i knew i was old
When i realized the best time to have dinner is at 4, i knew i was old.
I remember becoming aware how old i was when i started to count how many parts of my body creaked and/ or hurt when i walked up the stairs.
I heard the kids in the neighborhood calling me "Old Lady ----------"...that hurt.
When i heard myself offer a complete stranger an old piece of hard tack candy from the bottom of my purse (It was Christmas candy and the time of year wasn't)
...and when i started carrying a big purse everywhere i went so i could have a medicine chest and replacement garments in there...i knew i was quite old.

Looking old and feeling old are two different things. I know it's only fiction but Scrooge became old as a young man when he discovered he wanted to be rich at any cost. Then when he finally snapped out of that nightmare existence that fateful Christmas Eve late in life, he became young again.
