So I've been unborn for an eternity's past and soon I'll be dead for rest of time...?

So there's this tiny blip of a few decades where I'm alive. How do you make sense of your tiny existence in relation to eternity? Forget the multiverse, or string theory whatever.. Just this small window where we are alive and then we die. It's very peculiar, we should be dead. Shouldn't we?

I'm referring to the beginning of energy, matter, gravity, whatever else, the laws of physics. Not necessarily a universe, galaxies or life.

ad infinitum at nauseam. What about those who say that an eternal past is mathematically impossible? That it is impossible to “count down” an infinite number of actual years, one at a time, from minus in infinity to the present.
