How old are you?

How do you deal with getting older?

What is the point of life?

What happens when you die?
>>
>>17543889
Just turned 21 a few months ago. I don't deal with getting older, I drink and generally try and forget about my mortality. The point is different for everyone, for me it's to enjoy what time I have. Regardless of if I die tonight or in 60 years. I don't know about you anon but my afterlife will be in Valhalla after I die in glorious battle, drinking with my brothers and the goat that lactates mead

There's got to be a point, we just might not see it yet. The design of the body, other life, plants, the solar system. Everything around us definately took some sort of thought. It's crazy to stop and think about how it why you exist in the first place. Like, why me? Why do I exist? I personally believe there is more to life than dying. It's a mystery, we can only guess. I dare say religion around these parts, but whether you're religious or not I suggest reading the Bible for it has interesting information. I'm open mind so I try to get as much information available, and come to my own conclusion, and at this time in my life It leans more towards the possibility of there being an afterlife.

One thing I have noticed is that everything around us is automatic. Your body functions on its own, (I'm talking about your organs,immune system, your senses, etc), the planets rotation around the sun, the development of a human in a womb, plants growing, the list goes on. And when I think about how everything is automatic, it tells me that it's that way intentionally, meaning it was created by something or someone.

Additionally with everything being automatic (including our personalities and sexuality at birth) it's interesting how many religions condemn gays even though that part of them is just a different balance of chemicals in their brains
>>
Just accept that one day you will die and be gone forever.

The West has completely made death a taboo and for that reason many fear it (inb4 muh natural biological reaction, we are men.... not beasts and should be capable of introspection as well as masters of our savage, beastly nature).

When it comes down to it you must understand nothing is eternal, and everything around you, including the house around you, is temporary.

If you need religion, astral projection, etc.. to help cope with the fact that one day you will die and be gone from this earth then fine use that. Whatever helps you in dealing with your mortality and maximizing your potential, happiness or whatever you seek in this life is worthwhile.

Nothing else matters.

>How old are you?

>How do you deal with getting older?
I never really notice aging and I'm still pretty young, so I'm fine with it


>What is the point of life?
I don't believe in an objective point. We create our own meanings. Live life according to your terms.

>What happens when you die?
Probably nothing. There's no way to test an afterlife, and all we have to go off of is people's accounts of being "dead" and what they experience, which could all just be hallucinations due to your brain dying. I think that reincarnation is the most likely afterlife, if there is one.
>>
>>17544028
Not arbitrary:
>don't do/do this
The don't do's hurt another person or else your relationship with of God. The do this's do the opposite.
>Satan runs rampant
Adam gave Satan his world by his faith in him
>god is going to kill
No, death comes by not having eternal life. Hell is where those "dead" people are placed

Being born homosexual isn't an excuse, it's a direct effect of Adam's sin. It's a card you're dealt because Adam rebelled.

Not trying to shit post or push religion, but there's better arbitrariness in the book besides the ones you mentioned.

Still seems pretty arbitrary. Why do those things in particular piss him off? At one stage he said women couldn't go to church without covering their heads.

Why does one persons actions Fuck everything up for everyone forever?

And last time I checked God could just take all the Christians, firebomb the rest then imprison Satan. Instead he unleashes four horsemen of doom, turn water into blood and unleash years of torture. Seems pretty much like he's doing it for shits and gigs

He wants everyone to get along but he's not human and I personally don't see that he understands us very well. We are like God, but he's not like us.

>women, blah blah, hair
Yeah, it was a cultural thing. Seriously half of the book is a response to long-dead cultures.

>why does one person get to fuck it all up for us
Because it all went by natural order, or inheritance, etc. You biologically inherited weakness in this body, right? Sin nature is explained the same way.
>I don't believe that
Meh, that's what the claim is
>why doesn't he end it now
He's wanting others to repent. "If he wasn't so patient, you wouldn't be forgiven either, so STFU." Romans 2:4

According to research done on human time perception, 19 years is actually the midpoint of your life. What this means is that even though you might live to be 75 or even beyond, the years between 19 and 75 will feel like another 19 years due to how you perceive time as you get older.

Will be 29 next month.

I just tell myself that everything is meaningless, because it is. All those fears inside your head, nothing matters when you're dead!

There is no point beyond what you want to make of it on a personal level.

Simply put, you stop existing. There's no afterlife, no "souls". Nothing. When you die, the very concept of "you" stops existing. We're just biological machines, and like regular machines, the second the electricity stops flowing, all that data essentially ceases to be. Until science finds a way to turn your brain's electrical impulses into recordable data that preserves your memories and personality, you'll be gone--and even if we had that technology, what happens when the power goes out? Nonexistence, baby.
>>
>>17543889

39... turning 40 next month

Deal with it by a combination of philosophy and trying to think of things to be thankful for mixed with periods of low-key despair when something else goes wrong with my body or I look in the mirror and can't pretend I don't 'look' like I'm used to looking

The more I live the more I don't think there is a point. I've burned through multiple interpretations of christianity, 'new age' stuff, kind of just abstract notions of nature's cycle... then something happens or you have a moment of insight and realise you're still missing something.

Death? I'm pretty much convinced that there's some sort of 'rebirth' potential but not really in the traditional reincarnation sense. I think being dead is peaceful one way or the other (no judgement, no heaven or hell)... but becoming dead - that's gonna be scary so I hope it happens quick.

The easiest way to manipulate people is by fear. Fear is the mind-killer; people stop being able to think when they’re afraid. Make someone fearful, and you can easily control their behavior.
Take religion, for example. Quite a lot of fear-based religions believe that god, by whatever name they call that entity, is a giant enough asshole to have created a hell where people receive infinite punishment for finite misbehavior.
That whole “there’s a gun to your head, so make the right choice or else” thing is manipulation by fear.
Terrorism: “the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce”
Most standard religions believe god is a terrorist. They’re also so terrified of this great terrorist in the sky that they convince themselves that they actually like the gun they believe god is holding to their heads.

Perfection can't be anything but decaying. We're on a rollar coaster of bang and crunch, and our births and deaths are symbolic of this essential nature. As a person dies, in those brief moments, one achieves perfection, and then you become something new, like shaking a priceless etch a sketch drawing.

But perfection isn't valid if you don't work for it enough. It's given in the end, so you restart, to try and reach perfection before death next time. What can be a better infinite game than that?

I've been kill twice that I can remember on this plane. After death there is nothing for a little while, then you are called back. Time doesn't flow in a linear fashion after death. One of my past lives was in the future compared to this one. There doesn't seem to be any real point to life, and if there is, maybe not discovering it is why I keep coming back. The hardest part is remembering the people you grew close to in life and realizing that you will never encounter their consciousness again once they have moved on.

It feels like yesterday I was 15, and when I think about it it terrifies me. Time flies so quickly.

The point of life is completely personal, imo. I think you should live, be kind, and leave the world a little less shitty than it was when you were born.

Probably nothing. Part of me hopes it's like sleeping.
>>
22 and I don't think there's a point or any meaning in life...which means we have to find our own. I also don't think I fear Death, I'm a positivist so I see it more as "We are already lucky to experience life and that's what matters". Also if anyone is kind of anxious about Death, I would recommend reading books from the Discworld, the author didn't shy out of directly tackling the matter of Death, it is literally a character, and he really did it in a clever way that's never really depressing. And they're also good read in general.

>How old are you?
39

>How do you deal with getting older?

i could say badly. once you see those around you dying, you definitely deal with being mortal.

Go get some experiences, while you're young.

And then, focus on money.

Money allows you to be free and experience a lot of things.

New things will be new experiences, building new neuron connections inside your brain. Take travel, for example.

This is how you slow down time passing.

>What is the point of life?

idk, maybe experience & learn as much as you can, and take it back to where ever?

>What happens when you die?
well, either your soul gets incarnated again, or your whole conscience ends up as food to the big boss...who knows?

let me clear up focusing on money.

I should rather have said that money can free you, but it also can chain you.

Just get enough, so that it can be the tool it is, like enabling you to take half a year off to tackle the appalachian trail or move to new zealand, or take up early retirement on your (small?) boat...

I'm 31. I don't care that I'm dying because it's inevitable. My dealing with it is that I'll make sure to die before I get so old that it hurts to live and I can't do shit and just lay around farting in pain. I'm going to Valhalla fuck it

I'm 55 and handicapped. People like me only had a 7-14% chance of survival at birth back then.

Since turning 40 I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and I get wounds and infections quite a bit.
I almost died of sepsis and pneumonia a couple of!times and my kidneys have stopped working temporarily a couple of times.

I don't fear death, but I'm not looking forward to it either. I don't recall ever seeing anything while I was unconscious for ten days, but after I woke up I couldn't sleep for four nights. Every time I closed!my eyes I would see swirling. Nebula, or sepia tone clouds and hear the sound of WWll planes dogfighting.

this anon got surprisingly right that point... ever wondered why your chilhood memories were so long... and then at some point... you just fast forward to now?
because when you get used to it, you pretty much pause yourself while the time keeps going and aging, the newborn have everything new, everything to learn everything to explore, thats why at that stage and till year 7-8 max your life was remembered as long, then... you just get used to all, i dont know if i made my point clear.

>How do you deal with getting older?

By trying to take better care of my body, absorbing everything around me and drawing better than I did 2-3 years ago. Also now I actually want to do something with myself when before I was content to just stay high all the time and shitpost.

>What is the point of life?

Mine for now is to be more forgiving towards myself and others, deal with psychological issues that hold me back, and to create something worthwhile that will outlive me to prove myself to myself because I stupidly think of it like a revenge on life/god. I'm just a fucking thirsty soul. Also selfish. Feels good to admit it.

I know we're supposed to like ascend from this reality or whatever but I got shit to do.

>What happens when you die?

I don't know but I hope it's not too traumatic. If reincarnation is real I hope I can remember a few things from this lifetime like my loved ones, the music and of course who I was.

not defending the one you are replying but...
from a theological PoV...

The good creates things that has their own will, eventually since they have their own will, one should be different, that would be the bad, the bad says, hey im the good rebell and he is the bad dictator...

the good has 2 options,

1) smite him down and destroy the bad, the good would be bad as should be proving the bad's point that indeed he is a dictator.

2) let it be and let the contrast begings... we shall see what is better at the end, the good or the bad.

This answers perfectly one of the questions of the ''problem of evil''
> if he (god) is able to (erase the evil) and want to do it, then where the evil come from?

this would be the playground where what is good and bad for real come to conclusion, after let the bad gone wild, build and destroy, do as he wants to.

>where we come to play on this and why the punishment in hell according to this?

well... at the end when all conclusions where made and everyone see how everything goes to crap, simply proceeds to destroy. (now w/o accusations of dictatorship for what everyone saw what happens)

>why an eternal suffering for a finite actions?

philosophize this... the end of a ''conciousness'' cant be, therefore its not by actions, is about a choice, about to pick and be the good on the side therefore, picking your future residence.

i myself dont believe on this... strictly saying, mostly because as i said at first ''from a theological PoV'' but that doesn't stop me to feed that onto someone and have a feedback, in your case is this, because there is no point at reinforce a stablishment opinion.

i deal with getting older by making terrible life choices i guess which is why i'm in a shit situation now

imo the point of life would be to provide positive growth to the human race or our lovely planet in SOME way. bringing happiness to others, contributing to advances in science, creating art, etc. if everyone did this I feel like we could be much further than we are now

the infinitely small particles that I am composed of will be put in the ground. as i decay, these atoms, molecules, particles, energy, will be distributed as building blocks for other forms of life. I will be part of everything, and considering the number of these particles that i am made of, i probably already have been. only in this way, do i believe in reincarnation.

After this life if you chose light you'll go to the Light (as soul once in eternity can't change direction) and if you rejected the Light your soul will reject it as well in eternity

I might forget about it when I have a good time with friends, but then again I remember about my mortality in middle of cinema or party and I start having a panic attacks.

Ah, I remember my first existential crisis.

I was only a little boy. Toddler me was younger than 5 years old. I woke up in middle of the night and all out of sudden I realized I would die one day. I would cease to exist for the rest of the eternity. Needless to say I was scared.

I went to my parents bed room and I woke up me mom. I told her I don't want to die. She said 'oi you little cunt. Get yor shitty ass back to your fockin bed you miserably failed abortion or I will punch you in the nuts'.

From that on I gave death the finger, until I reached my early 20's. Then the extensional crisis came back worse than ever. It lasted only for couple of months, though.

> How old are you?
26

I don't think about it much. Nothing I can do, it's just the way of things
> What is the point of life?
to find truth. for me at least.
> What happens when you die?
I don't know and I suspect anyone who claims to be sure is full of shit. That said, energy can't be created or destroyed, so I suspect whatever energy creates consciousness goes back to the blob of all consciousness (whatever that means)

Anon, thank you for creating this thread. My grandma just died and I opened /x/ to stop crying and calm down. Reading how people feel and think has helped me and I finally am able to stop weeping. Death is always hard. I am 25 years old. I dont mind getting older. It is weird but I actually think it makes me prettier and my face looks more womanly. I deal with getting old with yoga, hours of biking and healthy food. Makes me feel way better in my body that I ever felt. Reason to live? For me it is to explore and expand knowledge, as I always hunger for more. Life after death? I would love to believe grandma went somewhere happy. It would put me at ease. Yet I find it hard to understand. I think we dont know a lot about reality around us. That makes answering this question not possible.

Deal with aging by being grateful.

The point is to exist and to comprehend - to be.

After death is you decomposing...

Unless you are you without your body.

>>17543889
Turned 26 last month, when I think about it it's a quarter of a century, and it seems like a lot, but I just try to enjoy every day to it's fullest, I go to work every other day, work out, go to college, play games and enjoy the company of my wife, we still don't have kids, and to me that's the point of life, live a good life, try to be happy and make the ones you care happy, don't be an ass to other people and take care of our planet. About dying, i'ts an inevitability, altough sometimes I wish I were immortal.

>How old are you? 33

>How do you deal with getting older? It's just a natural process, change is the only constant.

Everyone grows old, everyone will die, you can find comfort in this.

>What is the point of life.

Well its paradoxical. You can look at it as the point is the point, experience, what you're doing is the point.

On the other hand you can say there is no point. Neither of these answers are necessarily wrong or right.

Look around and you will see the point.

>What happens when you die?

A rememberance. It's a really good feeling, it can also be traumatic. It's like having reality torn away from you, till there is nothing left but this "awareness".

No names for it. It trancends everything. Words can't explain it.

How old are you?

How do you deal with getting older?

Dont think about it

My Kids

It's only another day
To find, create, enact meaning, or not
The same thing that was going on before you arrived

I'm 27, and I do the same. Sleeping tends to be difficult, because that is when creeping thoughts about these things tend to manifest. Human curiosity is truly a burden.

Best of luck man. It'll get better eventually.

Turning 21 isnt getting older. You just entered the prime of your life. The culture caters to people your age and a little older.
Wait till youre in your 30s and you'll have a real answer.
>>
>How old are you?
Turned 40 in Feb

>How do you deal with getting older?
It honestly doesn't bother me. I've earned all the gray hair I inexplicably still don't have any of yet, dammit.

>What is the point of life?
I've had different answers to this at different times of my life, ranging from the very cynical to the upbeat. At the moment, I subscribe to the admittedly fluffy "schoolhouse earth/everything is here to help you grow" theory, thanks to a near-death type experience I had.

>What happens when you die?
I'd like to think that the near-death experience type experience I had is accurate and that we do in fact continue on.
>>
maybe you wake up in a man made heaven
in the future, or maybe just a timeless dimension, humans have machines that search for unique quantum signals of consiousness that are no longer attached to their body(death). They then create a body and somehow reattach the consciousness signal or pattern(whatever makes us us) to that body and you just wake up in a perfect place.
>>
>>17543889
>How old are you?
19

>How do you deal with getting older?
I accept it as part of life

>What is the point of life?
There is no inherent point to life.

I do, however, have various goals and ideal circumstances that I pursue such as family, friends, a comfortable life, and a sense of duty to my larger community.

>What happens when you die?
Your body stops working. It will be after life as it was before it. You will not exist.
>>
>>17543889
Th point of life is living
The point of death is to be dead

Overthinking your life only corrupts the truth.

To live. If you mean like why are we here/ what are we doing here etc. I believe there is no point.

You cease to function/go 404.
