ON LIFE AND DEATH

Posted by DM692 - December 22nd, 2012


How long did the universe exist before you were alive? Well, the Big Bang was estimated to have happened about 13.75 billion years ago. That means that before you were alive, you were "unconscious" for about 14 billion years. You're probably gonna experience about 75 years. That's almost nothing, so make every day count, right? Well, think about this.

When you die, you're unconscious for eternity. Do you know what that means? Those 14 billion years that you were "unconscious" might as well have been a blink of an eye in this life. 14,000,000,000. Fucking. Years. Is nothing, compared to the future. How hard does one have to try to make an impact that's going to really affect the future? How persistent does one have to be to truly make his mark?

The answer, as far as we know, could be infinitely, something we simply cannot achieve. Look into these, some theories on how the universe might end. No matter what you do, it's all gonna be pissed away when it's all over.

Now go make the most of your 75 fucking years.

A solid message.

This is some deep shit. I like to think my consciousness returns to the galaxy sometimes.

Sorry to double post. But I'm so very tired. I meant to say universe, not galaxy. Also, I take what you wrote quite seriously, but I'm not sure if you're being serious. Anyway, good blog post and good night.

Nah I went through a weird phase where I really thought about this a lot, so I can't really think about my own death without taking it pretty seriously.

On your note about one's consciousness returning to the universe, I personally like the theory that all matter is sucked into a hole and made into another Big Bang and the end of everything, over and over. Eventually it's gotta create a universe where everyone's consciousness is in their favorite, most ideal position.

HOLY FUCK IS THAT HEAVEN

:/ You are gonna die long before the universe end. Go and get some rest.

I apologize for any lack of clarity, but this post was really just an affirmation of me coming to terms and expanding upon that fact. I realize that one should make the most of their life and all that, but when I personally think about it, I find it hard to wrap my head around the sheer amount of time that will pass once I'm in the ground, how many civilizations will rise and fall without me ever having a chance to know about them.

Luckily, I'm not a religious fundamentalist, otherwise, I would have disagreed.
