Extend Your Life
"I don't want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve it through not dying."
-- Woody Allen
Make a conscious choice to live a longer, healthier life. You can make a real difference to the future of your healthy life span through diet, lifestyle, medical choices - and activism. You can make a big difference to your health in the near term with the techniques and technologies of today, but ultimately we are all dependent on the advance of medical technology; the more reason to help speed that process. By joining the community, taking better care of your health, and supporting real anti-aging research, you can help to improve the future of health and longevity worldwide.
An extended life is a longer, healthier life. Healthy life extension gives you more vital years; it does not extend time spent in frail heath or dotage. By supporting scientific anti-aging research, you are helping to separate age from sickness, wisdom from frailty. This is a noble goal indeed.
At the end of the healthy life extension road, somewhere in the decades ahead, lies the cure for aging - medical technologies capable of preventing and repairing all the root causes of age-related disease and degeneration. Getting there will be hard work: activism, funding, scientific research and political battles. It will be worth it: imagine retaining the vitality and health of a thirty-year-old for as long as you choose. Imagine a world in which centenarians are the most productive members of the workforce. We become better people by working to bring that noble future closer.
We are often asked "why live longer? Won't it get boring?" To which we answer: life is as interesting as you choose to make it. When was the last time you decided that you didn't have time? Don't you want to see what will happen tomorrow? Haven't you ever wanted to try another career? Pick up a new skill? Take a year-long vacation? Healthy life extension can make that extra time possible.
In Summary
The ultimate goal of the Longevity Meme is to make available the choice of another tomorrow and the capacity to enjoy it, each and every day. We can see the way forward to achieving this choice for everyone who wishes to make it. Being old should not mean being sick and incapable - and there is a great deal that each and every one of us can do to help bring about this longer, healthier future.
