Your doctor tells you, "Put your house in order; you're going to die." Then someone says, "Hold it! You've got fifteen years to go!" How would you feel? Elated! Joyful! Thrilled beyond words! Suddenly your life would take on new meaning. What you thought was important pales in comparison because you were alerted for the knock of the grim reaper, and suddenly the darkness gives way to the dawn of hope. Fifteen years is a long time.
