>Well, the free will thing is true as far as it goes, but I would like to have had the opportunity to choose whether or not to be born. I think I would have passed. There's way too much sorrow and heartache waiting for you, despite the highs.

It's interesting that you feel this way, in spite of your relationship with Jesus. I, otoh, despite a fair amount of cr*p in my life, look forward to each new day, and expect the best of people.
