How Long Do We Have?

Question: Would you rather live an average life to 100 or a good life to 50?

Answer: I would choose a good, purposeful life – searching for and fulfilling our unique Human role in reality – even if it is much shorter compared to a long corporeal life which is spent simply fulfilling random animate (food, sex, family) and social (wealth, power/fame, knowledge) in a manner of day to day survival.

(Not to mention that as a “byproduct”, by reaching our Human purpose – rising above the inherently selfish, egoistic and subjective existence – we also rise above the constraints of time, space and motion, existing beyond the limitation of physical life)
