Let's assume you don't remember before you are 5 years old, and you quit after you're 12. That's like 8 times you can remember going trick-or-treating your whole life.

This is something the Happiness Lab podcast talks about and it's a really strong point to make. If you start thinking about "I've only got about 7 or 8 Xmases with the kids where they believe in Santa and Xmas is magical to them" or "I only see my parents once every few months, so may only get 10 or 15 lunches with them before the end of their life"...... And you'll really start getting a better appreciation of life.
