1,000 years

During church today a teacher asked an interesting question.  He asked what would we do if we had a thousand years to live.  On top of that we would not have to worry about housing or money.  All those things were going to be taken care of.  Pretty much you have a thousand years to do anything you want.  We were left to talk about it with each other in small groups and then came back and talked about in a large group.  I find this question a little odd to ask at church.  The person diffidently didn't understand somethings and assumed somethings that weren't on base.  Luckily I don't care about any of those things.  I find what would you do for a thousand years if you had them very interesting by itself without all the misinformation.  Some questions I had were does everyone live a thousand years and are they taken care off.  If so, that would actually change society  completely. My next question was do you age at the same rate as we do now or is it slowed down.  Neither question was answered.  I will thus say that only I live a thousand yeas and I age to twenty at a normal rate and then slow down.  Every two hundred years will be like decade till the last twenty which thus you age normal again.  Maybe a little faster in the last twenty years.

What would I do with a thousand years?  People answered such boring answer like I'd take thousand years to finish my PhD.  It might be because I'm in a ward with a bunch of PhD students.  One person said they would continue to make art and make things with their hands.  One of my friends said they would want to help animals, like having an animal shelter.  One person brought up the fact that we would probably still do all the things we do now in our free time.  We wouldn't do that much different.  I think he's wrong though.  Right now I have to work hard to support my family.  If I didn't have that I would have so much more free time.  Maybe I wouldn't learn Spanish still, but with thousand years I would do some things different.

The main thing I would do is travel.  I don't have the money or time to do that now.  Sure Allison and I get out of town all the time, but we don't go far.  One thing I would do is travel on my bicycle.  I haven't been biking much since I don't have one right now.  With a thousand years I would bike all across America and Europe.  I would also continue to draw about my life.  I would make comics about my travels.  I would enjoy seeing new cities and new countries.  I'd probably stay in areas for long periods of time though.  I wouldn't bike a pass and leave it the next day.  I'd probably bike some where and stay up to a year or longer.  I would just engross myself in the culture.  It would be amazing.  Plus I wouldn't have to worry about money, so life would be good. The one bad thing is I would want Allison with me for the entire trip.  I couldn't imagine my life without her, okay I could, but it wouldn't be good.

What would you do if you could live a thousand years?

the lonely octopus

The octopus. What is it about that creature that makes me so happy? The long tentacles that have suction cups on it? The crazy colors they can be? The fact that they live in the ocean and there is no way in heaven or hell you’ll get me down in there? The octopus. It is one of God’s mysteries, like winter or ninety degree weather. We could ponder the reason for octopi for decades and never know the true meaning or we could just go get a hamburger. I’m always looking for a good hamburger. So the mystery of the octopus and why I am driven to draw it will remain a mystery. A mystery as deadly as the werewolves.
