Death is forever

Ok, what is the point being here? Do you ever ask your self that, late at night when you finally have to think? We're here to give life, to what, is only going to eventually die too? I am going to die. WE ARE GOING TO DIE. Someday. Could be tomorrow, maybe in 60 years time. We don't know. But we do know that this IS going to happen to us. YES IT WILL. You will be gone like all the people you know. Sorry if this upsets anyone... We will be in the rotten grave, rotting away ...WE WILL.

Why is 'committing' suicide so judged upon We're only gonna die anyways

We're alive for 80-100 years. I've often asked myself, would I like to like forever? No i'd say. Thats a long time. But then isn't it better than not living? At least your doing things. Well 80-100 years is a REALLY short time if you think about it, in the grand scheme of things. We will be dead forever. Nothing. Nothing. Nobody will remember us. Everyone we know now, they will be forgotten too and these will be this completely new people. We will be dead forever and forever doing nothing. Seeing nothing. Feeling nothing. This is so scary

Why do people worry so much about exams and ****e. I dont want children only for them to realise their own dreaded mortality. Ofc I am happy to live SOMETHING than nothing but i'm not sure we can call life a 'grateful' thing at all. Maybe only if u have a life already

Death is what makes life beautiful.

You realise that you're going to struggle in your exams.

Don't worry. The repeats will be in August.

How many of you can even remember your great-grandparents first name's? That's how quickly you are forgotten.

'Cause we're all gonna die
I can't wait 'till you die
All protestants, catholics and orthadox jews
You dumb scientologists
And guys who bend spoons
And buddhists, sort of
And athiests too
All you wackjob believers
Nobody's immune
You will die

KomradeBishop · 24-04-2015 02:57PM

I never understood people having an 'existential crisis' like this - philosophizing over death or the purpose of life, really makes some people land with their head up their arse somehow.

It seems blindingly obvious that there is no ultimate point/purpose to life, and that you just make up your own purpose based on your personal values/principles, and try to live your life as enjoyably as you can, while sticking to those values/principles.

There you go, simples - can stop wasting time pondering an unanswerable question now, and just get on with living.

Why are you worrying about this? :rolleyes:

Second, if it wasn't for death within the circle of life, you would not be here writing a worrisome message about other people being worried about things you don't deem to be worrisome.

Were it not for the dark, you wouldn't appreciate the light, Grasshopper. Now get out there and have some fun.

Chipolor · 24-04-2015 03:05PM

The purpose of life is to enjoy it as much as you can, eat nice food, ride beautiful women, go on adventures etc.

Open the bedroom curtains and let some light in

It's Friday, the sun is shining, there is a cold beer on my table, 1 hour until I go home. Say what you want about death, but I'll be too busy living to think about it until Monday morning.

Worrying about death is pointless. When you die, you cease to exist and there's no point in worrying about that because when it actually happens you'll be incapable of worrying/suffering it. Or you can believe some fatherly figure will judge you and put you on a fluffy cloud of pleasure if your worthy. Or that if your a dick, you'll be reborn as a banana slug and if your good, maybe a person (Or dung beetle, who said being human was the pinnacle ?!?). I'm rooting for the Buddhists theory but I'm realistically inclined to believe my first point. As for whats the point? There isn't one. We're insignificant, hence all the freedom to do what you want.

Most people believe death is the beginning of something much better than life.
You have to accentuate the positive and consider what a glorious experience life is.

hatrickpatrick · 24-04-2015 03:20PM

I've always quite liked the idea that there is no great meaning or purpose to life, although personally I don't believe that. But if it was true, it would mean failure is irrelevant and who you end up becoming is irrelevant, so you may as well do what you really want to do without worrying about what will happen if you don't manage it.

This theory was originally largely spread about by members of an organization who wanted the bulk of the population to shut up and keep whacking the ground with a stick sixteen hours a day in almost impossible poverty while they went about gathering up enormous quantities of wealth. You can certainly see their point, but I'd like to think most of us are little wiser nowadays. :pac:

"The last thing on my list of things to do is try dying
If you wanna live forever then you will die trying
Inevitable like the weather, there's no use in lying,
Death makes life worth living, so stop crying"

That is thought provoking alright and it is a huge privilege to create life.

However, you don't need to worry about death when you're dead. It wont bother you.

In the mean time get the most out of life. For that to happen you need to think strategically. Get your exams and earn a good living (talking like the man, I know!) and enjoy the finer things in life... and travel.

You can panic about it if you like, but that would be a complete waste of time... Unless you like to panic. If that's the case - go freak yourself out.

Lol in your dreams, try 60 - 80 at best for most people and then take into consideration the current generations diet of processed food and indoor lifestyle. Be looking at 50-70 at best.

There is no meaning of life. Enjoy it while you have it. Stop listening to depression music

Death is forever
