It’s a long story, but I made this post to cope. I’m feeling better, I’m mixing up my routine. I am getting annoyed when I come across people talking about death.

Yesterday I did help someone that had a pop-up canopy collapse on them under heavy winds.

I think this universe sucks, not to ignore human history. Lots of it is empty space apparently cosmic events can wipe you out with next to no warning, your made up of atoms and cells that can die and degrade, and we are stuck to this solar system because space isn’t empty it’s full of shit thats going to kill you

Makes me think about going into a coma from a car accident. Your consciousness could be out for however long, then you make a weird fantasy and regain consciousness and start a journey to fill recovery. It would be good to have a healthy attitude/mindset imprinted onto yourself in that scenario.

This is hard to articulate, but like molecules thar make up a person constantly come in and leave the body and when their in the body they “change states”. Technically while you’re alive you changing into other things constantly. Person you were a second ago could be considered dead since that was a specific combination of atoms that are lost.

It just ads to the mystery of consciousness

I doubt insects are conscious because of how simple they are, but I do like that rich and Morty scene where the teacher was happy to be turn into a fly, but that’s because he was in therapy for eating poop

I felt that way too, but then I watched re zero and that changed my mentally. I watch the anime last year

It’s peaceful at least. It will cure my anxiety.

I don’t know if I can believe in a great purpose, is there an end that’s meant to be reached or is it like we find the next step.

Maybe we dream, and works towards it if we achieve it; we dream again. We can enjoy it, be absolutely ambivalent, or even suffer. Maybe I can get back to appreciating the universe unfolding in front of me.

Yeah I watched that video when it was new and had it rattling around in my head. It probably why I starting thinking memories and intelligence aren’t part of consciousness. I do think emotions are connected to consciousness because they seem to override decision making.

Yeah I’m no gonna subscribe to the religious concept of reincarnation. I do agree it wouldn’t make sense that there’s a fixed number of souls that were doing it for eternity, or that there’s this coherent cycle reincarnating as different animals all the way back to begining of life.

It is cool think about “soul” being cleansed like some day we can become redeemable through some process. I don’t believe that’s happening

Yeah theirs an idea that universal can recreate particles and mass from energy that exists and eventually I guess the universe can recreate the the universe similar to how we know it after some amount of time or make a big bang. I don’t understand that physics but interesting concept.

I would be curious if the was consciousness without matter, maybe a pure energy based being could exist

Only if there’s a way to test reincarnation. It would be neat to look at potential test. The closest thing I think of is anesthesia because that shuts your brain off

In my scenario it would be “consciousness” whatever that is. I could imagine myself with different set of memories or alternate timeline where a different set of events happened. I don’t have any evidence that those scenarios exist, but it would paint a picture that I could be a different person or even a different living continue being.

But yeah if I did have a past life it’s totally lost to me.

I was thinking you’d be “reincarnated” or reconstituted via Boltzmann’s brain scenario and you’d get your memories back after some crazy amount of time, but I get that could happen at an earlier stage in life. Sounds like the “universe was created 5 minutes ago along with all our memories” BS

It’s interesting having someone tell me to not worry about it.

I like the quote “fill your life with love and let death take care of itself”

Yeah I can forgot random days of my life so I don’t remember those days. I get the perspective I’m just illustrating a point

Yeah and it should theoretically be instant from your perspective. The whole memories thing would be weird like you don’t have your memories or you have a different set. My scenario is I’m reincarnated as a space squid and life w normal space squid existence

Cavemen were really busy chasing various animals and running away from various animals. Then there’s whole exploring new lands and encountering other humans species. Progress could be slow and cataclysm were a many
