It forces us to choose. Choose what means the most to us.
- true_religion 15y agoI say it hurries us into making decisions, wherein after our basic human psychology starts to rationalize the decision as 'meaningful'. If we had all the time in the world, literally, we could eventually learn to make decisions that are truly good instead of local conveniences.

- haliax 15y agoNo it doesn't. The death of young children, or victims of accidents or violent crimes for instance, doesn't force them to chose anything. The notion that you have limited time, might make you want to prioritize. You can hardly speak for anyone else, or what makes them choose anything.
