I did get messed up by some anxiety and have these thoughts rolling through my head so I'll leave it at cosmic horror warning.
spoilerI'm not religious but I have thoughts about experiencing consciousness and what it is. I say that consciousness is independent of memory because we forget, clearly dependent on our physical body, etc. generally I do say that we don't know consciousness so maybe it can be reconstructed (in the can't rule out the possibility way)
So I can see scenarios were my conscious could pop into existence without my memories after I die (as I'm writing this I realized that's nothing to fear).
I am trying to adopt healthier mindset of looking at everything in life as a quest, new things are a call to action, and that it's okay if everything I do amounts to little in x number of years (worked out okay for ozymandias, right?).
Im probably just rambling because my life has got boring and monotonous along with actual fear of American politics.
I get that. Have you read The Egg by Andy Weir? If not, there's a Kurzgesagt video that's just that story with animation. I'd suggest it. It touches on this concept and kinda paints a more optimistic picture.
