It's a weird thing knowing you will be dead FOREVER. Forever is one hell of a long time.
I've always assumed that outside the narrow window of human experience, forever is all at once.
why of course it is. once worked w/an old dude nailin' tin on commerical poultry house roofs. he always talked about once dead, being dead for a long time.
i kept countering that it was a long time before we were ever alive, so what's the diff? he didn't know, and i didn't either. anyways it seemed reasonable to compare the two. you know, the before and the after...
for sure, i don't want to bake under the hot summer sun nearly forever out in an open graveyard. if there's plenty of shade from a covering of oak trees, then that might be different.
