“When I’m asleep, I dream that I’m sixty; when I wake up, I’m only 30. It’s a terrible nightmare. When I’m asleep I dream that I’m thirty; when I wake up, I find I’m already sixty. It’s a terrible nightmare.”
This dialogue at a hairdresser’s provides an opportunity to reflect on aging, the ways in which we spend time, and the unintended consequences of longevity. Because human life is constantly being prolonged, the dystopian image of several-hundred-years-old individuals tired of life and complaining of their fate will soon become a reality.
