We shall all die, and our lives will be irrelevant then.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As told in Friendship with God, if we simply decided to believe and act as if first, we're all one, and second, life is eternal, it would render virtually everything we've done all our lives pointless.
To achieve great things we must live as though we were never going to die.
If nothing else, there's comfort in recognising that no matter how much we fail and sin, death will limit our suffering.
Life will always be to a large extent what we ourselves make it.
I would rather die a meaningful death than to live a meaningless life.
If we ignore our death, we end up just going around completely oblivious to why we do the things we do!
Life and death matters, yes. And the question of how to behave in this world, how to go in the face of everything. Time is short and the water is rising.
Although we will both die, and life is utterly meaningless, my time is vastly more important than yours.
People have their own deaths as well as their own lives, and even if there is nothing beyond death, we shall differ in our nothingness.
Nothing is a matter of life and death except life and death.
