Immortality is a prize that is next to worthless to a kid in their early twenties. All the pains of being young come from having an excess of life and not knowing what to do with it. You don’t really know who you are yet. The pain comes at the beginning of life from having too much life and at the end from having too little of it. Life is a palindrome like that: you cry at both ends.
