RE: On the Nature of Time...

in #esoteric7 years ago

I am still at a relatively young age (19) so it should not have to do something with older age.
I agree that doomsday is not around the corner anymore but last year in my imagination "the end" could happen any day any time which made me really depressed. Now I still think the world could end but 1. I am not letting that bring me down and 2. there is so much improvement and hope going on which hopefully results in a golden age one day. Wheater we'll life longer or not let's see what time brings. Energy shifts as well as the progress in science can lead there.

Sort:  

yes, do we really want to live forever? By that I mean inhabit our current body which fades and dies. Your soul never dies. If you're old at 80 who wants to live to 1000? There's a greek myth about the guy who wished to live forever but didn't ask for eternal youth so eventually got so old he turned into a cricket.

I am totally with you on that. If I have a look at the older generation father/auntie wise and even some of those my age I certainly would choose everlasting youth in a short life then living forever but never having lived at all. Maybe that's one of the reasons why we die . So we have motivation to get out of bed (almost) every day. No need to do that or accomplish much if you have an eternal life.
