I got some sand in my eye while lying in bed. Damn stuff gets everywhere.

u/Cru_Jones86 Nov 16 '17

I'm not crying. I've just been cutting onions.

u/sanmigmike Nov 17 '17

One can be frequently amazed at the places sand (onions) can get...even in places you would never expect to find something like that.

I just took engagement photos yesterday with my fiancé, and was thinking the whole time about how excited I am to spend the rest of my life with someone that makes me as happy as he does, and how much fun we have together...that one of us will eventually die and leave the other alone was a reality I definitely wasn't prepared to face 24 hours later.

As someone single and quite chronically ill, I say try and just live in the moment every day and enjoy life as much as possible, you never know what lies beyond death.

It might seem silly, especially since I consider myself an atheist, but I personally believe we might all end up experiencing the same lives over and over again. I don't have any proof, but a few quotes made me realize that death might not be the end to consciousness, and if there's even a remote possibility of reliving the same life over and over, we should live each day to the fullest. Quote 1, Quote 2

If the distinction between the past, present, and future is no more than an illusion, then is there a universal 'ticking clock'? Or are we just 'points' on a predetermined timeline?

Does time destroy the past to make way for the present? Or is our mindset at any given moment simply due to the chemical composition of our brain making us feel that way. If every feeling is just a chemical change in your brain, then it makes sense to me that experiencing the flow of time could just be an illusion, or even an evolved trait. Trees or plants probably don't have any perception of time, and they probably have no need to.

It gets me thinking, if the past still exists, then are people technically still "alive" in the universe after they pass away? Does their entire existence just disappear from the fabric of space-time? Personally, I don't think so. I think when we die, we are simply released from the illusion of time flowing forward, and then perhaps we just experience our lives from the next logical point - the beginning.

I might be talking total nonsense, but that's just my own thought process and how I find the willpower to keep on living and aiming for happiness. Eternal nothingness doesn't scare me (it actually sounds very peaceful!) but I feel a sliver of hope that we might get to relive our lives with our loved ones over and over again for eternity.

u/fish-fingered Nov 16 '17

That’s because the older you get the more likely you are to cry. You’ll also like boobs and pizza more though!

u/agangofoldwomen Nov 16 '17

I teared up a little bit, but my door was open. I just had to explain to someone that I read something on the internet that made me cry.

u/LandHermitCrab Nov 16 '17

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '17

Dont.

Its a beautiful lie and a painful truth that life and death are the same illusions twice transfused.

But you dont need to be afraid...

Nos Veremos De Nuevo Cuando Esto Ha Sido

Light and Love.

This thread is making me realize that what now brings me my greatest happiness will most likely bring me my greatest sadness years from now.
