[General] Immortal individuals tend to become apathetic, cruel etc, as time goes by, especially if they were born mortal. What are some examples of immortals who benefited from their immortality?

By benefited I mean became more empathetic and appreciative of life – the small and big things. Those who did not become jaded but instead aimed to better themselves and the world(s) around them.

Hob Gadling from the Sandman. Wouldn't say he didn't become jaded, at certain points, but he always snapped out of it after a few decades-centuries. Even after living for hundreds upon hundreds of years, losing family and friends, including [](#s "his best friend,") he still wanted to live life, as much as he could. 

Never really truly gained wisdom or a grander understanding of life - he just lived it a day at a time.
