I dont think anything can be lost, you're here in time. You're going back to be something you were before.

100 years from now, let's make it 200 to be sure

you and i will rip through each other's 'zone' and give a high five

and it will be 8.3 trillion light years until we do it again maybe

if it is infinite, then we all get our

I was dead once before, I can do it again. I was dead for billions of years and it wasn't so bad. The transition will likely suck though.

the way I see it once I die, nothing exists, as I will never experience any of it. of course no excuse to devalue other people's experiences, which are likewise unique to them.

I like to believe since each life is unique that each death will be unique.

Each death is unique, there is a mouse trap that is just a sticky sheet and the mice get stuck in it and hyperventilate and struggle for days before dying of dehydration.

i do like to ponder questions like this on occasion.

a question like this though... if you think about it, in each moment of time, the "you" that exists, is entirely unique. as time passes, new memories are formed, and thus, the "you" that exists a moment after the present moment is a different "you" from the present moment. therefore, in each moment, "you" are constantly being killed. "you" are constantly dying, and in each moment that passes, "you" are constantly being reborn.

so what is it that makes "you", "you"? it clearly isn't something based on unchanging memories - your memories are changing constantly. to live is to embrace change constantly, like a river - preferably one that is flowing smoothly and calmly, not too fast, not with stagnant pools. though granted, sometimes you have little say in the matter and have to adapt as best you can until you do!

so if memories isn't entirely what makes you, "you", what is it? i know the current me would have little in common with the 8 year old me - he would have no idea what video games were, nor sex, and have no interest in both therefore - but we would both love some of the same foods, and enjoy stories and learning new things. the 13 year old me would know what video games were, and maybe some interest in men as well, but would have no clue what a smartphone is or why i love them (he hated phones, since he never got any phone calls and would not know any other use for a phone), or believe that i would ever actually be feeling happiness in life. so clearly memories aren't exactly what make you "you", but they do perhaps help you connect you to your past selves - or at least anchor you, like roots do a tree, to existence. without them, you'd just be... well, an animal. instead, with them, you're able to live in the present, but also able to take stock and compare notes to what came before and make improvements, predict the future, and keep growing wiser.

perhaps instead, what makes you, "you", is for lack of a better term, a "soul", a set of personality traits, loves and desires, the things that make you unique from others? these traits tend to be, if not immutable, very difficult to change. the 8 year old, 13 year old, and present me can all agree - i tend to love learning, hearing new stories, playing and challanging myself with puzzles and brain teasers. i love trying new things, experiencing new things (as long as it's good clean fun!), i hate hurting and suffering, and love to keep calm and relaxed. i tend to enjoy quiet, don't mind being by myself for long periods of time, am adventurous, love felines, pay attention to small details, am very focused, and...tend to ramble on sometimes. <,<; i also am very passionate and like to share the things i learned with others, and wonder why others are not always interested in learning about the world around them when there's so many interesting things to see and hear!

so what happens when we die then? i wonder this as well, and while i don't know this answer anymore than the next person, i personally feel the answer is that, well... the choice is in your hands. that heaven and hell, reincarnation and all that, nothingness... you create the choice. if you believe in heaven, that's where you'll go. if you believe you'll go to hell, thats your ticket. reincarnation in a new body, your memories forgotten? there you go. if it's your fondest desire to be reincarnated with your memories intact, reunited with your loved ones in a new world and go adventuring somewhere else, that will happen. that because everything is connected, and the multiverse exists, your consciousness will travel through that strongest connection, whether it be love, hope, or fear, and take you to that place.

though i do think also that there's always a way out for those trapped in "eternal" hells, or even "eternal" heavens, in case they find redemption. (or for those who find singing praises to a deity all day to eventually be just another form of hell.) it might not be immediate or quick, but i think love is a fundamental force of the universe just as much as anything is, and it abhors eternal suffering and damnation more than it does a vacuum.
