Immortality as a Curse

Austin asked why people view living forever as a curse rather than a blessing. Well, I believe they say this under the assumption that even though you live forever, your friends and family do not. You would watch everyone you have ever been close to die, yet you would live on. I think most people believe that there comes a time when you have fulfilled your life and that it is a good day to die. If you live forever, that time will never come. You would watch the world change and be constantly floating in change. And what do you live for when you live forever?

I think I will use that as my discussion question: When you can live forever, what do you live for?
