I want to live to be one hundred.

That was your deep, insightful thought for the day?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I never claimed it to be deep and insightful.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

It's not an unusual thing to want. Most people don't want to die.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

What's your point?

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

What's yours?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

That if I die of old age instead of in battle, I want to live to be one hundred.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

Dying of old age is kind of boring, though. No glory in it.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

There's glory in dying undefeated.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

Death doesn't necessarily mean a defeat.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Exactly. People can die of old age.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

There's more than two ways to die. I'd think someone like Fire Lord Sprinkles would fear being assassinated.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I'm not afraid of anything.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

Concern?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

You could also die in a freak accident. Or a natural disaster. Or from disease. It's a pretty long list. So why only focus on the two? Just because they're the most preferable to you?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I would never allow that.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

Things we would "never allow" have a way of happening anyway, whether we would like them to or not.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Then I'll prevent it.

[intuitivelyapt.livejournal.com]

Good luck with that.
