I too have known joy and sadness, and, on the whole, I prefer joy.

Your reasoning is excellent, it's only your basic assumptions that are wrong.

The task I've been given seems absurd: To wait here on earth until I no longer exist.

Before i knew the best part of my life had come ,it had gone.

The longer I live, the less chance I'll ever recover from what life keeps doing to me.

Please don't believe everything you hear about me, regardless of how true it may be.

Take Courage! Whatever you decide to do, it will probably be the wrong thing.
