If the universe is infinite, Then the observable universe is only as finite as the length of your life and capability to traverse through space.

Not necessarily. The observable Universe could also be reducing over time. Distant galaxies are accelerating in their travel away from our observation position because space itself is expanding. This means that over long periods of time, objects at the periphery of the observable Universe will red shift out of view.
