Get a high quality copy of your favourite picture. Place it face down on the glass of the world's best quality colour photocopier. Print one copy. Take the copy. Place it on the glass and print one copy. Repeat this process a thousand times then compare the last photocopy with the orginal picture. You'll undoubtably notice errors - perhaps patches which are a different colour, or are distorted, maybe even missing.
That's a reasonably analogy of what happens to your DNA over time as it is reproduced and that's why your body won't last for ever.
