By some standards. Our average life expectancy is a bit lower because many die young. I'm considered middle aged, but that period lasts for many centuries with us.
Some of us, myself included, envy the younger races like yours. We gutter and flicker for eons. You burn far more brightly. It can seem a cold comfort at times, but I think to live shorter may be the better fate. To live fully.
But what do they say? The grass is always greener in someone else's lawn?
