There's a story in Greek Mythos, I believe it pertained to Nyx, Goddess of the Night, and a gorgeous Shepard boy.
She falls in love with him as he is sleeping in the pasture. Then takes him to her cave. At some point she goes to ask Zeus for the Gift of Eternal life, which he gives to her, but in her hast she forgets something just as important. She goes to her cave with the still sleeping Shepard boy and gives him the gift, thinking she'll be able to gaze at his sexy sleeping body for all eternity. Then, to her horror she realizes that she forgot to ask Zeus for the gift of eternal YOUTH! She tries to get him to give her the gift but he refuses.
Because of her mistake, the boy will live forever, BUT he will still age. Apparently, as the years wear on he ages until he's smaller then a cricket....
That in consideration, I would only take it if I also got eternal youth in the package. If not, then I'd embrace death or I'd try to find one of many items give you a prolonged death.
The Deathly Hallows, The One Ring,etc.
Then again I'd probably choose the Deathly Hallows, because the One Ring was made specifically for Sauron so, anyone else that tries to wear it will have a prolonged life, but will eventually sub come to the power of the Ruling Ring....
If you had the chance to live forever, would you want to?

Would eternal life also include eternal youth?
