Recently i saw Tuck everlasting. The story begins as Winnie, an overly protected and rather bored 12 year-old girl, meets the Tuck family. The Tucks (Mae, Anges, Miles, and Jesse) have inadvertently drunk from a well which freezes them in time forever. They will never change, never grow old, never die. I would rather say No.

I'd say amen to that. i don't see the beauty of immortality.

To be frozen in time is a little bit of a different twist than just living forever. Like the young boy, will always be a young boy. No matter how long he's lived, how much he knows and has experienced, the world will always see and treat him as a young boy because he is frozen in time.
To be frozen in time as an adult or to live forever as and adult is a little bit different. You can do anything, learn anything be whoever you want to be. You really have all the time in the world. The downside to all that, is that you would have to watch everyone you love grow old and die. There's the rub and the reason that I would have to say no to your question.
