Quoting: Dionysian Fullaflattus A head and heart that reconcile time. To disappear one must be comfortably aware. I recall when AGC mentioned how he wanted to 'blink out of existence'. At the time, I found it really troubling and wondered if I'd ever get that point. I did and not too shortly after and understood why people get there. I realized that the 'time' between awake and dreaming, that state of total unconsciousness, it's not scary at all. And it is, total peace. In that, I found comfort with the potential there is nothing after life. That the dead are unconscious. Difficulties strengthen the Mind as labor does the body... ~Seneca |
