Whether or not all of this is depressing is an interesting question. I've had a couple times in my life where I misread or didn't fully investigate some headline online and thought that the world was going to end. That is an incredibly uncomfortable feeling and you immediately start reaching out for answers. One salient feeling was the idea that "I don't really want this thing to end, I want it to continue even if it is't altogether good." What's crazy is that this dialectic ensures the constant and eternal renewal and manifestation of being. You never truly die. The infinite will always collapse into being. The problem is no longer that our lives are finite, for we are reborn. The problem is, how should I live knowing this and what am I to feel about the inevitable nightmarish suffering (and joy) that an infinity of being imposes? One thing worth noting is that you already have an infinity of past lives behind you. So keep that in mind in your evaluation of the situation.

>tfw you realize the very nature of being is logically self creating
>the finite implies the infinite by necessity
>the only thing infinity lacks is finitude which necessitates the creation of the finite
>this is the birth of all polarity which constitutes being and we are god coming to know himself eternally
>tfw hegel, the kabbalists, the daoists and the mystics were irrefutably right
>there is a logical explanation for existence and it is ascertainable by the mind of man

Anyone else have this feel?
