The thought of planning for the future or expecting it is very alien to our species. We have lived for thousands of years and have grown accustomed to the idea that we are going to live forever. We have also grown accustomed to the idea that we are going to live in a certain spot forever.
There is a certain amount of planning involved in life, and you can argue that it’s not as alien as we think. After all, we have spent thousands of years getting used to the idea of the future, the idea of being here and having the same basic needs to eat, to breathe, to sleep, to raise a family. We have also developed some ways of dealing with the idea of death and decay.
However, it takes a good deal of planning to ensure you’ll be here forever. Think of all the things you’ve done that gave you a sense of who you are. Think of all the things you’ve done that gave you a sense of identity. Of all the times you’ve been a part of something important, the fact that you’re still here will probably have something to do with it.
I do think we can expect to live for a long time, but it is an expectation that carries some responsibility. The longer we live, the more we become aware of these things. In the long run we should expect death. It may be a surprise, but it is something that we accept and manage.
This is why I think we should expect to die. It’s not a feeling that we can just “wake up” and start living our lives. We’re all on the planet right now. The fact that we’ve lived so long and so many of our basic needs have been met shows that we can still work with the basic necessities of life. If we’re going to expect that we all die at some point soon, it’s worth taking the time to plan for that.
I think the problem is age. We think we can change the world. And what we can change are our beliefs. But we can’t change our ideas of how we want to live. We can try to change our beliefs, but the only way to change our beliefs is to realize that they will never be what we want them to be. And that realization itself is a loss.
The problem is that we all want to be the people we were before we were born. We all want to be the people we want to be. But we just aren’t. The only way to change that is to realize that we will never be the people we want to be. And that realization itself is a loss.
So how do we overcome this loss and make those changes? We have to be willing to change our habits. We have to be willing to make changes so that we become the people we want to be. But, the fact is, we don’t want to be the people we were before we were born.
