No not at all - I'd be burdened by my own body. My friend's great-grandmother is 98 and when we visit her, she continuously complains about all the aches and discomforts her body cause her.
I am not so attached to life that I wish to experience it until the very last breath possible.
I am also not afraid of death, which I consider only the next passage to the next stage of existence, so that wishing for a long, long life does not ever come into my thoughts, unless, for example someone such as you asks the question you have asked. Thank you for refreshing my mind as to consider the possibility you've proposed.

Sure!!! Only if I can feel as good as I do now. I'm a 63 yr old great grandmother and feel as good as I did when I was 40. Still do all the yard work myself, work full time, know what to shake and what not to. My clients call me "awesome". Having a ball! I was a single mom for 17 years... kids are 38,40,43,45 -- tons of grandkids and 4 greats. Done with all that...happily single...Very healthy vegetarian. It's time to woohoo!! Traveling, boating even rode a Harley last week.

You'll never know how long you're gonna live. Though, if I get to be a hundred years old, I'd rather be gone because I don't want to be any burden to my family.
100 years on earth that's amazing but not my cup of tea.

My grandmother lived to 98. She was asking in her middle 90's why is she still here, she said she was so tired. So I would have to say, after talking to her, no. Everything seems to be dying within you. You lose your hearing, your sight, it's just not the same anymore. You spend a lot of time dreaming.

No, I wouldn't. I won't make it to 30, much less a hundred. I have known of some people who lived to be 98 and had no health problems, but the age factor just gets me.

IT DEPENDS ON HOW MY LIFE IS GOING. I WANT TO LIVE AND BE HAPPY AND DIE HAPPY WHEN I AM 100 YEARS OLD AND I WANT TO GO OUT KNOWING THAT I HAVE MADE THOSE LIVES AROUND ME HAPPY, BUT I DON'T WANT TO DIE AN UNHAPPY PERSON LIVING A REGRETFUL LIFE OF THINGS I WISH I COULD'VE CHANGED.
I ALSO HOPE THAT MY CHILDREN WILL TAKE CARE OF ME JUST AS MY MOTHER AND AUNTS HELP TO TAKE CARE OF MY GRANDMOTHER WHO IS 91, WHICH IS A BLESSING BECAUSE WE ALL LOVE HER AND ARE THANKFUL FOR WHAT SHE HAS DONE FOR US IN OUR LIVES, BASICALLY I WANT TO HAVE A BLESSED LIFE WHEN I AM IN MY LAST YEARS.
