From The Book of Questions by Gregory Stock.
Question #32: Would you accept twenty years of extraordinary happiness and fulfillment if it meant you would die at the end of the period?

If a doctor said I probably wouldn't live another 20 years or if I was at least 60 years old, then I would do it. Otherwise no.

I would want to pass that option on to some of my Elders. They could use another twenty years, and that would be a great way to get the time.

You know what? All things considered, I kinda feel that it would only make me more sad, no matter what time in my life I got this offer. The reasoning is simple - I wouldn't want to give up my life if I were happy and succesful (which I assume is the main reason why people generally don't want to die) but with every passing year, I would know that I'm running out of time.
I would, however, accept the offer if I had someone dependent on me because a) it would ensure I'll be here for the next 20 years (which, even in my 20s is not guaranteed) to take care of them, and b) I assume my happiness would have to extend to the other person(s) since seeing them unhappy would not make ME happy and fulfilled.

Yes, I would totally go with that agreement. It would be amazing.
My EDS is going to get progressively worse. I probably wouldn't want to live much past 50.
Also, I've never been super happy. I would love to experience that for a while.
