What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?
By Tracy Schruder

My thoughts on living a long life are mixed . Part of me wants to live for thousands of years, or even eternity, but with a twist – I’d love to be in my 20-year-old body with my 54-year-old brain .

For me, it’s about savoring each moment, slowing down the hands on the clock of time, and getting my soul’s worth out of this one life. By choosing to enjoy the present, life feels longer to me and more fulfilling .

As I see it, we’re all eternal souls, and our time here is just a chapter. I believe in reincarnation – the body may pass, but the soul lives on.

We’re living extraordinarily long lives, really; we just can’t remember the previous ones.

It’s my belief that we are all sparks of divine energy, and this energetic vibration can not be destroyed – only transformed.

We’re awakening to a new Earth, remembering who we are and our place in the grand scheme. For me, it’s about dying to yesterday and embracing each new day.

The length of this life journey isn’t what’s important; it’s whether we lived it well and added something special to the world as a result of us living that matters to me.
