My next two 50 questions

  1. Which is worse, failing or never trying?
I think that ultimately it is much worse to never have tried in the first place. If you try and fail at least you can go to sleep at night knowing that you gave it everything you had. If you never even try, there's always that little voice that wonders what it would have been like had you succeeded. It's better, in my opinion, to succumb to the failure of reality than to be forever tortured by the promise of the potential success.

  1. If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
That is simple. People focus on the expectations placed upon them. It's expected that you will go to school, go to college, get a job, get married, have kids, grow old, retire and die. LOL. People are afraid of being the odd sheep in the flock and will conform, even if its not really what they want to do. Therefore, people suffer through the reality of every day because in their mind, its less painful than the unknown of being themselves.
