Question:

Is it better to die uncompromised, or to live without your sense of self?

Is Life worth living if you've betrayed yourself? Would it not be better to die with your self-respect intact?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Life is a long series of compromises. We compromise of most everything we do from religion to politics. In each case we have to choose what we consider that is best for us under the current circumstances.

It is impossible to be completely true to yourself without being a complete hermit and even then you have compromised some of your desires and dreams to live as such.

About all you can do is try to make good decisions and learn to live with them. I am more than willing to elaborate in more detail by email if you so desire.
