If I've learnt anything from numerous askreddit posts on the question 'what is the best feeling ever?', it's that the human condition is rather tragic. The best pleasure is basically the relief of discomfort or pain - like taking your bra off at the end of the day or like this one walking into an air conditioned room.
That's why I consider being alive as irrational for a conscious being. Suffering will always outweigh good emotions so we should come to the conclusion that not being alive is beneficial for our wellbeing. Somehow the majority of us decides to rather endure pain than end our existence.
It's this or nothing at all. I wish I was one of the lunatics believing in an afterlife.
There's an afterlife for every single one of us. Whether it's something "you" can perceive is an entirely different proposition. Judgment in the after life is where all the anxiety sets in... The idea that we'll be caste once again, but "yodo" fuck it I'm a good dude and damn a hell.
