[Discussion] Confront your mortality

[Yubel]

In not confronting our mortality, we tend to entertain certain illusions about death, we believe that some deaths are more important or meaningful than others. The truth however is death makes no such discriminations, it is the ultimate equalizer, it strikes rich and poor alike. For everyone it seems to come too early and can be experienced as tragic. Absorbing this reality should have a positive effect on us all, we share the same fate with everyone and thus all deserve the same degree of compassion. It is what ultimately links all of us together, and when we look at the people around us, we should see their mortality aswell. This can be extended further and further into the sublime, death is what links us to all living creatures aswell. One organism must die so another can live, it is an endless process that we are apart of. This is what is known as an oceanic feeling, the sensation that we're not separate from the outside world but that we are part of life in all its forms. Feeling this at moments inspires an ecstatic reaction, the very opposite of a morbid reflection on death.

You went full schizo...

I won't ask how you came to that conclusion.

When I die, my body will eventually become star semen and that's pretty ****ing neato

I choose to live a happy, loving life with Mother. That, us being together, is all that matters.
