"To question immortality is to question your worth."

Hi, my name is Zach Goldman. I have a tiny experience I had with my brother I'd love to share!

My brother asked me with those battle-worn lips of his, "Zach, do you ever get tired of dying over and over again?"

I was aghast. Never have I thought that I can simply die more often. So I asked as a response, "what's wrong with that? I could be immortal if I can just keep coming back!"

My brother, by the way named Drago, shook his head and told me, "no, that's not immortality. It's just petty death cycling."

I was confused.

"Unlike you, I don't think I've aged nor changed slightly. I am still your depressed brother," my brother said.

"But I saw you fall on the battlefield once! Aren't you immortal in that sense because you're a god and all?" I inquired, I was really interested.

"Is that what you think immortality is? Listen Ziky, being a God is just a title. Man-made you can say." Drago added, "by that they're not similar. Gods die, concepts die, but immortality will remain unchanged. You are not immortal."

"What am I?"

"You're replaceable. If you can die just like that and be susceptible to having a new take on life makes me feel like you're not the same Zach I've had since I was born. You're just another alliteration disguised as my brother, just a stranger in sheep's clothing, whereas I, if I die and come back, will be the same Drago over, and over again."

I was hurt but Drago said, "I still think you're my brother, no matter how difficult it is for me to accept how often death will happen to you. I am just not ready for the next alteration of yourself."

"Well, I am sure I'll remember this as I have with…maybe my previous alterations," I said.

"Just be unique, don't pray that immortality means there's a chance for you to change." Drago told me. That's why he's my favorite brother!
