RE: I am an Optimistic Nihilist

in #videoshare7 years ago (edited)

No, you are not the only optimistic nihilist on Steemit, @liberosist. :)

Half of the days, I try to believe that there is life after death and that I will reincarnate again and if I'm lucky even remember my past lives. It gives me a sense of continuity that all this, our daily lives, our family & friends, our struggles, our happy moments, our thoughts, all these are not for nothing.

While the other half of the days, I am an optimistic nihilist too. :) I look at all the other living organisms around me, or maybe not around me, a camel, an aloe vera plant, an ant, an ostrich, a penguin, a dog... all these once gone are presumably gone forever... or stuck forever as fossil fuels, why then would it be any different for us, humans? And I know each day, we should make each moment count as long as we have our thinking and feeling faculties with us, whether we live up to 50 or 150. The past is but a memory and the future is but a dream... The only time to live is the present! It's a short but hopefully sweet life. Let's fill it up with lots of friends, good health, happiness, legacies to our future generations, and golden memories if we live to our old age!

Let's just live life up as best as we can!

Enjoyed the video! Thanks so much for sharing @liberosist! <3
