Counting Existence and the Desire of Existing More...

Telomeres are the caps at the end of each strand of DNA that protect our chromosomes, like the plastic tips at the end of shoelaces.

In an interview from 2015 with Larry King (picture), he asks Neil deGrasse Tyson...

"What if we could live forever?"

"It is the knowledge that I am going to die that creates the focus that I bring to being alive. The urgency of accomplishment. The need to express love — now, not later."

"If we live forever, why even get out of bed in the morning? Because we always have tomorrow. That's not the type of life I want to lead."

Cannot imagine a world where these people lived a bit more...

But for sure, would be a bless if any of these people lived a bit longer...

Take good care of your existence.
