We treat our pets better.
I think most of us make way too big a deal of this whole -being born-dying thing , we call life.

It is so infinitesimally absurd.Scientifically , why get attached to something ( a body ) that is just so perishable. The moment we are born we carry a used-by date.

INFINITY before born...then ....microscopic speck of a life.... then ...INFINITY after death.

What's the big deal ?

If we lived for , say , millions of years , ....then , it all changes ,... but ever so slightly.

Infinity dominates everything.

Actually, not dying is of great interest to me, infinity or no infinity.

I may feel different at 80. Please God, I'll review then.

Suicide in the young or middle aged is absolutely tragic.
