A good friend asked 'If i was offered eternal happiness but my life would have to end at this moment' would i take it?

Of course the first thing i thought was, no way i want to experience what life has for me, but it's a question that can be thought about in great detail.

Is life filled with more happiness than mournful?
Does the good make up for the bad?

You find the love of your life, he eventually falls ill and passes away. Are you grateful for the times you had or destroyed by losing him?

The scariest thought for the future for me is not being able to reach my dreams, i have such high hopes i would be crushed if nothing worked out the way i have been planning.

I don't think i have ever experienced true happiness. There is always something that isn't going my way, so why would the future be any different.

If i have a bad day, i think to myself 'tomorrow will be better but tomorrow never comes'. Not having to deal with all the complications of life seems like a good thing but if everything was good we wouldn't appreciate the things we enjoy and love as much.

I decided that it was taking the easy way out and if i was offered this i would take the risk of having a miserable life for the chance of a great one.
