In my own Opinion (STRESS on Opinion)
Life is Not easy. This we all know. But the only thing that keeps Me going,
is the fact that I know I have a limited time on this planet. And not
knowing HOW long that is, makes me want to accomplish everything I can.
If someone were to tell me I would live forever, I would probably become the
worst procrastinator of all time. Take a decade vacation. "I'll clean the
house in about oh, 5 years or so. No hurry! I'll be here awhile!" Etc.
