Do you think there is any truth at all to this?
I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do…
We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn’t always know this, and am happy I lived long enough to find it out.

I feel like I agree with him. Everyday all I do is complain to Mark about my health when I should be sharing beautiful moments with him.
