Imagine an all you can eat buffet that also had some of the most magnificent desserts you've ever seen.
You eat and eat until you are perfectly full and then eat about half of a remarkable dessert. It's a meal you would brag about to family and friends.
It was wonderful because it was finite. It had value because it didn't last forever. You were able to enjoy it because the food itself has a finite shelf life. It won't be this tasty a month from now. You are able to bask in it's freshness.
Now imagine that instead of finishing your wonderful meal and walking away, you are now forced to continue eating. You can never leave the restaurant. You must stay for all eternity.
It's the finite nature of life that gives our lives such a wonderful experience. You should be thankful that it doesn't last forever.
