Given the choice, I would choose a long life over a short life with a famous death. Unlike most of my male colleagues, I have no interest in dying in a blaze of glory. I want to experience the true meaning of love, and I want to be able to spend my entire life with the person I love. I would feel as if I had achieved a greater meaning in life through loving someone and having them love me, than I would have by just dying in a blaze of glory. If it came to a point where I was defending the person I loved, then I would gladly throw my life away. Although, I would not want to die young just for mortality in the minds of people I care nothing about. As to doing nothing of merit, as long as I can find my own purpose in life and find someone I can truly love, I will feel that I have accomplished more than any one man can accomplish in death.
