Personally curiosity is the driving factor behind my desire for immortality.
The story of life is a fascinating one for me. As long as there are
questions to ask and answer (when, where, how and why did the universe come
into existence?; what is the meaning of life?; how will the great story
eventually end?) I will be content seeking out the answers. If and when I
know all the answers, then I'll probably be ready to die (assuming the
answers don't just lead to another set of equally intractable questions).
