Those minutes/hours/days spent experiencing pain do count. You speak as of the after-effects but make it seem that an advantage in living the process itself doesn't count.
That's like saying that we're all going to die anyway and there's no advantage to how we live our lives. So why bother with anything?
- donatj 5y ago> living the process itself doesn't count What reason do you have to believe otherwise. What does it count towards? What counts is in missed opportunity. Missed abilities to affect the world around you before you leave. Pain at the very end doesn't alter that much at all.
- msravi 5y agoFor all you know, the whole world around you might be a figment of your big and complex imagination, and nothing you do would, in the end, affect it. So what actually matters, (in fact the only thing that matters) is your perception of the world around you (and that includes pain).
