Life is what it is and fairy tale "happy endings" are for children.
I just cant accept the fact that we only have one chance and thats it . Maybe thats why they created heaven in the first place ,so we can all be more relaxed and just act as if we're good.
Or we could realize that we only have one life to live, and that that is a big motivation for us to actually live an honest life, to treat other simnilar mortals with respect and decency, and not destroy the only known planet (which is, after all, the only home we have) that can support human life.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
