Something is better than Nothing

Feeling bad is better than no feeling at all.


A life of suffering is better than no life at all.


Paraphrase of an idea in "Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor Frankl:  "Even in the most desolate and hopeless circumstances of the Nazi Death camps in World War Two, there was still occasionally a beautiful flower or a magnificent sunset."


You have all eternity to be dead and only a few short seconds to partake of the horror and the glory of creation.  Which would you rather choose?
