Mr.Penumbras 24-Hour Bookstore: Pre-Reading

      I think the key to immortality would have to be love. Love transcends space and time. Without love many people would be lost. Love can never die. We may never find the secret to Immortal life but we sure will try. Many of these people are in love with the idea of living forever, but what would that time be if you could never share it with someone.
      Our endings are inevitable, but we could at least go on knowing we had done something in our lives if we have love.
      Love is a once in a lifetime chance to be happy and I think people should try to find love instead of getting this "immortal life"(which is not what its cracked up to be and if people knew what it was like they would give anything to have their normal lives back).
      I know not many people actually find the love of thier life but they gave it their best shot and deserve something so special.
      Theres actually this old Greek myth about Love:
       When Zeus created man he gave them two heads and four legs which none of the other gods  thought looked right so he sent forth his lightning bolt and split them in half. These people had a desire to be with the person they were seperated from thus created love (and is most likely where the word "Soul Mate" came from). They knew that person was out there that they belonged with and they found them(which is something I find courageous).

  1. I thought your opening paragraph really drew the reader in. Being in love would allow the person you loved to remember you and therefore you would live in immortality. However, when you started explaining your ideas it was a little confusing. For example, I was not sure how the Greek myth connected with the idea of immortality. Grade: 77%
