I know I should be amazed by this, but whenever something like this pops up I get just a little bit sombre. With everything humans have accomplished, it still seems absolutely miniscule when looking at the scale of everything out there. More so, there's a sense of loneliness. Yes we have each other, but beyond that? We're all we've got for now, maybe ever. I just wish I could live long enough to know.
- layer8 4y agoPotentially adding some somberness: Feelings like somberness and loneliness only exist in your mind, as a result of how evolution formed how our brains work. It doesn’t have any real meaning outside of our current restraints. In fact, meaningfulness itself is a concept that only exists within our minds. That set aside, what I find more disappointing is how the speed of light, the accelerating expansion of the universe, and the inescapable increase of entropy place serious constraints on anyone’s future.
