    The worst thing about dying isn't that the party is over; it is that we must leave and the party goes on without us. https://philosophynow.org/issues/108/The_Party_Without_Me …pic.twitter.com/2C79Zc8nlE

        I enjoy your content, I really really do. But you should consider paragraphs in these posts. It makes the reading process so much more enjoyable.

        There’s something about the party man, it’s that safe haven of bliss at the end of hard working in x time. Plenty of dopaminergic activity associated with presence of others.

        The sad part is that the party is not always fun. On the contrary it is often spent with us sitting in some corner with a couple of friends trying our best to have fun but struggling to find our rhythm most of the time. Anxious of the fact that we should be happier than we are

        It will go on without us. Because once we pass from this narrow band of reality, we enter into a different frequency band of existance. We speculate about missing out, but once we depart, there will be nothing to miss out on, bcos we will be existing in the greater reality.

        Life as we know it exists in just one construct within a universal infinity.
