Perspective: It’s not about how many chapters we’ve lived but how rich and exciting those chapters are.
The characters now face a gut-wrenching decision. Do they open the box and find out how long they will live? If yes, what will they do with that knowledge? If not, which means they’re choosing not to know, will they live any differently?
As the characters in “The Measure” discover, a long string does not equal happiness. And while the characters who get short strings initially feel as though they’ve come up, well, short. gradually, they find greater meaning and richness in their comparatively fewer days. Their newfound knowledge alters their perspective on what matters.
All this brings me back to my little sister, Julie, and the deep angst I feel at what may turn out to be a premature death. I want her to live forever. In other words, Julie has fine-tuned those relationships that mean the most to her and not dwelled on those that she may miss out on in the future.
