But once the behavior is chosen, therein lies the extent of the effects of that choice. One has 0% control over what happens to them or to their body as a result of that choice.

"When you're gone, when you cease to be, after you've been laid in the ground what do you want left behind for a legacy? Do you want to be remembered as that miserable old man/woman who never smiled? Do you want to be remembered for your possessions? Or maybe your greediness and the fact you hoarded every dime you made? Or do you want to be remembered for your kindness, your gentleness, your compassion, and your knack for always helping the less unfortunate? I would hope it be the latter. If so, start living your legacy. Now what are you waiting for? Enjoy that legacy while you're alive; don't wait forit to come out after you're gone. Live today because it's all you have."
