A long time ago, my old therapist asked me what I thought would happen after I died. I told him I didn’t know and was ok waiting to find out when it happened. He pressed me on it and I said “ok, either the big switch flips and that’s it, or something soul-like survives, or the human mind dilates my final moments into an eternity because it cannot comprehend non-existence.” And then he changed the subject.
This reminds me of that.
Gawdamm I never thought of that possibility. You’ve broken my brain sir/ma’am. I’m going to be useless for the rest of the day contemplating this.
What do you think Hell is, if it’s not that eternity spent going over our worst moments?
Based on the anesthetic I had a few years ago it’s probably not the third thing, but the therapist was annoying me.
