One evening, twelve-year-old Jake sat next to his father on the porch, watching the sun dip behind the trees.
“Dad,” Jake said, deep in thought, “I have such a strong desire to live forever. What should I do?”
His dad took a sip of his coffee, nodded solemnly, and replied, “Get married.”
Jake’s eyes lit up. “Really? Does that make you live forever?”
His dad smirked. “No. It’ll make that desire go away.”
There was a long pause. Jake blinked, then slowly leaned back in his chair.
“…Are you okay, Dad?”
“Ask your mother,” he said, and took another long sip.
