Today I watched a YouTube video on the SCP foundation and in that video there was a bit of a philosophy session for the content creator at the end, and he spoke of what I call the duality or dichotomy of life. I don't believe in the afterlife and more specifically I don't believe in the void or reincarnation, I believe that dying is like the opposite of living whatever that means... And there is a bit of wisdom to gain from this in my opinion, because if nothing is what death is well then life is everything. And what is there to gain from nothing? Nothing that's what there is to gain from nothing, so that gives us all the more reason to appreciate life for what it has because in life there are things to appreciate and in death there's nothing nothing to be sad or happy angry about. And that's what gives life value, the anticipation of death the knowledge that after this there will be nothing to gain there will be nothing to appreciate that would be nothing to love. Anyway yeah just thought that was interesting... have a lovely day.
