Humans are insignificant, so the desire for eternity is etched into human bones by forces even humans themselves haven't perceived.
From the time when humans first gained wisdom, to this very moment, from ignorance to science, people have been pursuing eternity.
But it is clear that eternal life is not a domain humans can touch; humans haven't even conquered nature, so how can they reach beyond natural forces?
Thus, reproduction becomes the way cells pursue eternal life, and the only way.
From a pseudo-scientific perspective, each release of life's essence can be seen as a pursuit of eternity, a liberation from shackles.
Often, such acts of escape are meaningless, but if successful even once, they become meaningful.
In reality, humans are achieving eternity through these means, the only factor eluding discovery is that the successfully escaping cell cannot carry the memories humans already possess.
