I think about that pretty often, but death is the only thing that keeps our lives in perspective and reminds us how little time we have. Our achievements would mean a lot less if we had forever to do them. I don't mean to be crass and I apologize if a somewhat humorous example is used here, but think about action movies. Imagine if Die Hard was three days long and Bruce Willis had errands to run. He does these awesome things under very little pressure and at his leisure. The terrorists assemble a grill, hold a barbecue, watch Roots. It loses meaning. It's too slow. The conflicts become nearly irrelevant. At the end of it, the viewer is just glad it's done. Sucks. What a complete and utter boring piece of shit. In life as in literature and film, conflict creates meaning. I meditate on it every day, it doesn't help much, but I do have some perspective in spite of frayed nerves. Living forever is living without consequence and that ain't living.
