I love life, and I love it so much I could do it forever. This is not to say that I would want to live forever in this place. It was one of God’s kindest acts to assign death to our earthly existence, simply so we would not live forever messed up in a messed up world. Suffering is one way God helps wean us off of what is passing, and encourages us to live for things that will never pass.
