Why live at all?

I have no doubt that I, like you, have changed the world in some way — large or small. Imagine if we decided to do it deliberately. Imagine every morning getting up consciously saying "How am I going to change the world today?" Life is not short. I have been alive for as long as I can remember. I dispute that statement on so many lips: "Life is short." People say "Life is short" when what they mean is "Life is precious." And it is! Life is so very precious, so very rare in this huge cold universe, so why do we waste it??? A wasted life is an unlived one.
