@snoopdug... agree... first question that actually made me stop and carefully think! there are some possible implications here that I'm sure are not considering thoroughly.

No way. Because me being here is providing at least a little extra happiness for my kids and my family and I would rather have them happier than me

Life isn't about being happy all the time, and, forgive me for being do cliche, but it's about the ride. The ups and downs, the twists and some things that throw ya for a loop. I don't want to gamble with time. I just want to live and live well.

I love how when Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory was told that Amy's mother would be disappointed if he didn't attend her birthday, his response was something like..."She is 93... She isn't going to be disappointed for long."

That would mean I'd likely die at around 52 instead of 75. I'd rather have the extra time on earth to do some traveling, see my future kid graduate college, maybe meet a grandchild, help people, help animals. My aunt died at 52, and while she burned brightly, she was far too young.

We should be responsible for our own happiness and fulfillment. I'd opt for a chance for long life.

And we won't use most of the time so instead of spending years to "try" and make myself happy I would have what everyone wants....to be happy!

You do control your quality of life. Perception - Action - Results. To improve you need to know your worth. To get good balanced results you need to be assertive, not aggressive. Know that you are not alone and are loved.
PS Matthew McKay is an excellent author who has easy but effective books.

Depends on what my life expectancy is...I would probably choose happiness bc that would mean that i marry someone I truly love get a good job perhaps have kids and pretty much live a shortened perfect life...

@TheAntiLib, that's ok. The question is designed to make you think and to encourage interesting discussion. Since that lets you off the hook, don't worry too much about it.

interesting that the younger you are the more likely you would Jake the trade. by the time you hit the top bracket you know how fast it goes and you just wish you could slow it down! ha

you don't know when you are going to die. what if you were meant to die in two days and you gave up half. then your going to die tomorrow. definitely not worth it

Life is not just for me. I live to serve others, our true legacy. The good we do in others lives, will live on and pass on to even more people over their life. Things rust, degrade and don't go with us. Heck, they take most of it from family (taxes...)
