Would you commit a crime to stay young and beautiful?

People nowadays spend billions of money just to become more beutiful... Advancement of tachnology also includes development of beauty products and beauty treatments. People have the of being discontented and once they get what they want, they star asking for more... People who are insecure about themselves will never feel beautiful. So as long as we cannot accept ourselves the way we are, we will never become beautiful.

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder and I agree to that. Each of us have different tastes and people have different people whom they may call beautiful.

The movie Next starring Nicolas Cage however has a different perspective about this. He qouted that an Italian Painter named Carlotti and he defined "Beauty as the summation of all parts working together in such a way that nothing needed to be added, taken away or altered. Does this mean that you need to be perfect??? But then again, nobody's perfect. This makes it more confusing... So I'll just stick to "beuty lies in the eyes of the beholder". hehehe...X3

Now,back to the question... Would I do it??? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Even if its not imprisonment, I still would not do it just to be beautiful because I simply do not like the idea of immortality. People are loved because we change. These changes are cherished by the people who care for us. Also, living for all eternity feels lonely. People become happy by doing new things, discovering new things and by changing. If we stop changin, in the end we will get tired of it and start exploring again. Anti-aging is not a bad idea but finding the fountain of youth is like giving yourself a curse you will forever regret. Didn't we learn from all those movies with these fountain of youth? Like in the "Ben Ten" series. There was these episode where they meet a guy whose been guarding the fountain but he was not happy at all knowing that he will never die and watching all his loved one's die before him... So. I am not that stupid to try it. Besides, I still have my pride to protect. X3
