I’m not depressed (at the moment, well maybe a little), just feeling philosophical.

Edit: the idea of this came to me because I was pondering why people fight so hard to beat diseases and live a few more years. What are they planning to do? Why exert effort just to be here longer when you don’t have a reason?

Just why?

      I bet you are under 40.

      Life doesn’t need death to be worthwhile, neither does it need diseases or the urgent need to take a dump.

      I dissagree, I don’t think about death on a day to day basis. When I’m procrastinating I don’t think “I’m going to die some day I should get this thing done” Maybe it’s just me but the thought of death does not give me motivation to keep living my life.
