It seems tragic to me that you had to procreate to appreciate your time on earth. I am grateful and thankful for every moment. Life is full of wonder to me without the burden of children.

It appears you're grossly misinterpreting his statement. When you have children, you treasure alone time _that much more_. That's his meaning.

It isn't some desperate plea like you're implying.

Appreciation has a range of values. Having kids for many people is like going from black and white to color TV.
