There is no absolute eternity in the world, so enjoy the process

If no one cares about your death, as long as you have no nostalgia for anyone or anything in the world. You suddenly realize that everything you do, and everything you have beautiful, is going to be destroyed, and that there is no absolute eternity, do you choose to die? Is it more meaningful to enjoy the process or go straight to death?

Existence is a short-lived lie, and death is the eternal truth?
Such an understanding is too one-sided. Existence and death are a chicken-and-egg problem, it's a loop. When you die, your flesh turns to dust, which is also a kind of regeneration. Human society dies and other animals are born. When the earth dies, it becomes another celestial body.

If the universe is left to question the meaning of existence, okay, nothing is eternal, so the universe is not eternal, then the universe should also die directly? So what's the point of this question itself?

    A 90-minute movie where the two uncles chatted endlessly. At the end, nothingness overcomes belief. I think it is often a choice between a single thought.
