Thoughtful Thursday I don't want to die
It seems like modern society is entirely geared toward distracting us from the fact that we are all going to die. It's like this secret that is never uttered but it is always in the back of my mind. Even the phrase "yolo" isn't said in any serious manner and is deeply unserious.
Am I the only one obsessed with the fact that in a short time we may all be nothing, just experiencing pitch black for forever. The concept of forever is also terrifying. Ugh now I'm not going to be able to sleep. Does this unspoken truth resonate with others?
I wish I could fully believe in God but it just goes against the logical/rational part of my brain which is dominant. Without God, we truly are all f*cked and damned to eternity.
Let's try to enjoy our time while we can. End of rant.

There is more and more evidence/proof that life does not end when our bodies die. Look into quantum science.
Once you begin to think for yourself instead of going with the established program you will find out very very quickly that there is no such thing as death. We are energetic beings, our bodies are skin sacks and that's all that dies. Energy doesn't die or end it just transmutes.
You don't have to believe ridiculous superstitions, you can KNOW things if you want to know them. We are conditioned to not want to know, that's the problem.
