Would you trade now for ethernity? (Read the question..thx)?

By Planet Wealth

You find a pill that you know, if taken everyday will allow you to write a best selling opus that will survive for decades to come.

Your name will become synonymous with the greats: Hemingway, Faulkner, Joyce, Chekov, Twain…and you.

The pill morphs your matter into a frenized metaphor making machine, allowing you to scribe the coveted anthology in a matter of weeks. A publisher is found, and it’s sent to print.

If you knew that the book was to be a success, that you were guarantueed legendary literary lineage – and you *also knew* that the pill would eventually take it’s toll…

given the chance to take a pill that would promise you a literacy legacy, would you take the pill knowing that you’d die the day before it was published?

    If I knew for a fact that the money from the publication would go to support my family then yes..but that would be the only reason.

    After all no one lives for ever, but how many people are remmebered for ever! If the pill gives the guarantee that i will be remmebered for ever, what harm in dying for it?

    But no, the only problem is that it amounts to delibrate death – suicide. I am against that. I prefer to work hard and make myse;lf a legend out of hard work and creaivity. Like all of them did.

    So i am not going to take ur pill. No i am not.

    If I sincerely believed that there’s only one book inside of me —one tale and message to get across — I will take the pill. But as it is, my conviction that we gain more tales and messages as we grow older is stronger. Moreover, you also get to enrich your thoughts and maybe tell a better tale. So ultimately, it’s a no. :P
