P: Socrates? Why must we continue living if our lives end so abruptly, as we grow old and alone what must we feel but sadness?

S: You must not think to the future, however you need to reestablish your lifestyle if you feel like you are not living up to your potential. Happiness is not easy to retrieve but if you are virtuous and enjoy each moment, you will grow old a happy man.

P: However how am I to know that I will be able to achieve happiness before I am old and am no longer here.

S: Negativity is not a way to experience the pleasure of life. If you believe in what you are capable of accomplishing, your life will be prosperous and left without regret.

P: Regret? You mean if I do not push to my full potential I will not be happy?

S: Happiness can be achieved in many different ways however if you achieve your life goals, what more did you need from life?
