Who wants to live forever if that forever is to be spent on this planet? I hope to be released, to meet my maker and thank him in person for the gentle crib, and then to set off across the stars, all the Universe my destination, and to look back and see the lives of my beloved here on Earth until we are rejoined on some sunny day when all hardship and trials that formed us are past, if that term applies.
