There are more than 7 billion

[Yubel]

We share the world with all those who came before us aswell as those who will come after us.

Their wisdom, their dreams, what they left behind is still with us.

If you think about it, life itself is just a memory, when you think about your life you think about your past.

And your sensory organs are carrying information that gets edited by the brain to give you a unique perspective of reality.

By the time you perceive something it's already been done.

What is a life worth? That is dependent on everyones interpretation that is reinforced by their own experience of life.

The only thing that is valued by anyone is the experience, the memory.

Your life so far is only a memory and in time you'll be a whole memory yourself.

Great info

 

[Umari Senju]

You seem very inspirational this morning. Nice thread

 

[Gintõki1]

Nice one, Hisoka.

It's all matter of Perspective, life lives to live: take what's helpful to the next generation with no all accepted reason as to why it is living in the first place.


"If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants." - Isaac Newton <== I don't like this statement because he is boasting to a lone wolf who YOU owe 90% of your calculus definitions to Godfrey Leibniz. He was c*cky to my opinion

What the heck are you talking about? The quote itself is humble and it's true. We only make progress by building on existing knowledge by others.

Nah the naïve guys saw it as humble, in truth he means he has seen where giants couldn't see :|. He is trash talking to Godfrey Leibniz . On who invented Calculus: search "calculus wars"

Well it's true, but he could only see further than the giants by standing on them. If that wasn't the case we'd all just reinvent things that have been made by others in the past. The only way to do something new is to use what is already available and build on it.

The meaning of "life" is going to vary depending on who you talk to. That was just the psychologist approach. If you ask a psychologist, a physict, a philosopher, a computer scientist all experts in their field that question you will get significantly varying answers. Neither are wrong either, life itself being a memory only holds weight if quantum theory about time proves true but such an event could never happen by human means. Life isn't anything it's just a human given name for how we explain the entirety of all creatures. It's abstract depending on who you talk to. Humans live by subjective principles everyday but we cannot be governed by subjectivity so we take subjective principles and make them "concrete" for example money. Some things hold true however such as common needs for a human and "numbers are the closest thing we have to the handwriting of God".

The worth of life isn't just someone's interpretation of events but to basically not die. If we used the former I could argue that Martin Luther king is more alive than the random homeless guy on the other side of the street. The psychophilosophical approach as I said isn't wrong but there are many ways to look at ir some can expand some can constrict it but since it is a subjective principle there isn't one linear explanation. Humans after all are just a cluster of molecules vibrating at a highly accelerated rate. Or are we just a culmination of billions of cells with our perceptionbrelying on one organ? Or do we have a spatial spiriy inside us that percieves time as a constant and our body can only percieve it as flexible? All different questions with very different results.

Nice thread though I enjoyed the read and yoir approach to the concept

Life is way too overthought.

Well I did say it'd be up for interpretation based on the persons own life experience.

Life is synonymous with memory, experience and past. Our language itself isolates and organizes elements of our world for general comprehension, it's a system based on categorical distinction, but as needed as such a mode of identification is to the human mind, it also inherently implies false division.

Our experience of life is always delayed by our perception so we can never truly experience the present moment. That's why I said life is a memory.

 

[Narushima]

As with all other living things on this planet, human life was and is meant to be - struggle and conflict, and short-lasting.
To the ancients and to rural people still today, surviving another day alone was enough a goal.

The sedentary life of comfort and privilege has eroded that old way of things where you never had the time to think about why one lives. Hence the continued spreading of all silliness and decadence in our times: deprived of the need to strive, we turn into what is best exemplified by that wretched, useless, sexualized and drug infested celebrity culture of the western world.

What is a life worth, you ask?

As much as one works and strives to making something of its worth. To people like Newton that was doing physics but there are many, many other honorable ways of living. What they all have in common is work.

And there you have my own brief 2 cents on the wisdom of life.

 

[BlacLord™]

And in the end, those memories and efforts will fade to nothing as humans perish. We as a race are just filling the time leading to our deaths but none of it really counts, in the end.

That is the ultimate truth.

We call it a lifetime.
For the universe its just seconds

 

[HashiraMadara]

We call it a lifetime.
For the universe its just seconds

well I can argue that mathematically we live infinite lives

We don't inherit this earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

 

[Yubel]

We don't inherit this earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

Our children don't own the earth, nobody does but we do inherit the world from our ancestors, I was born 21 years ago in a world that's paradise compared to how my ancestors lived. It was the result of their effort and hard work that I'm able to enjoy the world the way I do today so it's my duty to take care of it and pass it along better than how I received it.

 

[Alien X]

Life is just a memory you say? Well who knows....

The end of your sentence is the exact meaning of the phrase. The earth should always be viewed as belonging to the next generation and in that way we should act as to leave a better future since it's them who have to live with the effects of ancestral decisions.

Nice way to start a day
