    “I would die for my wife”

    How about living for them instead? Dedicate your life to them while it’s still valuable.

      Too much work, dying is one and done. Easy, really.

      Something something no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country, he won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. Dying literally is doing nothing.

      For years my wife and I have talked about who would outlive the other and we both constantly say the other will (it’s pretty damn sad to think about going on without each other). Very recently I changed my thought process and would prefer to live longer, if only to spare her the pain of going through that feeling of loss.
