“Who wants to live to be a hundred? What’s the point of it? A short life and a merry one is far better than a long life sustained by fear, caution, and perpetual medical surveillance.”

— Henry Miller  

Maybe it’s human instinct to want to live as long as possible, but is it worth it to live long if you are miserable? 

The answer will differ for everyone.  

But it is possible to live a disciplined & strong life, while also having joy in it. 

To each their own.
