do you realize that if the rate of longevity continues for the next million years at the same rate as it has done for the last million years in a million years from now we will all be living for one million years
just think what you could do if you had a million years to do it in...
you could lounge around swimming pools for 75 000 years
you could nip out to the edge of the galaxy and get a feel for space
you could have a relationship that lasted for 999 999 years
you could have 350 000 000 one night stands
you could become proficient in 5000 skills
chase comets and asteroids around solar systems
read 10 million books and write a thousand for others to read
watch a million films on a kilometre wide screen
devise a self regulating environment
develop remote controlled robots to do all the dangerous construction work
using natural muscle/bone growth techniques make yourself any shape that took your fancy ( within reason )
become an entertainer and make people laugh for hundreds of years or make them smile for 10's of thousands
learn to play every instrument that has ever been devised and make a few of you own
dance for 70 000 years
visit 10 000 star systems ( what a rock collection that would be )
play every game ever invented and invent some yourself
contemplate the lovers character for 100 000 years
walk hand in hand with someone for 1000 000 000 miles
swim for 100 000 000 miles
give every star in the galaxy its own name
give every galaxy in the universe its own name

picnic on a million moons
construct a children's zero gravity playground limited only by safety factors and your imagination
invent toys so delightful children never "grow up"
nurture your feel for life so that all that you ever want is to be with other people
even with a million years there wouldn't be enough time to do all these things
to do all these things you would need to live for 100 million years

it means a person being bold and continually refreshing their commitment to love/life
follow the ethical guide and it will be a little easier to do this time around next undulation
