So many people are trying to add more years to their lives. And I think that what we should be doing is adding more life to our years. And that will end up, I think, in the long run for most people, have us living longer. What people want to do, should be doing, is making the moment matter. And that whatever they're doing, they should enjoy doing it, rather than doing it for some end. Now the problem is the world has taught us to divide work and play. play, for instance, and that work has to be bad. So for students, it can be play and study, work and life. And again, I object strenuously. Bring play into your work. Exactly.
