What do you want?
Mister Linderman asked Nathan Petrelli if he wanted a life of happiness or a life of meaning. Nathan wanted both.
You can't have both.
To live a life of happiness you must live in the present - in the here and now. No obsessions and no thinking about either the past or the future.
A life of meaning requires you to think all the time, to contemplate on previous actions and transgressions. To regret and to plot. To know pain and sorrow.
What do you want?
