Re: no-one has the definitive truth..have you?
I have a slightly different approach than survival:
Figure out what is your uniqueness, your unique contribution to the world if you can - and make it.
How do plants survive ? They blossom, they flower. Their seed is their contribution to the next generation. Having performed their purpose, they die, but their seed lives on.
So might your unique contribution to the world and those around you live on after your death.
Worse for me than the thought of not surviving is the thought of never realising what that contribution may be. To some it comes easily, for most of us it is much harder.
So many distractions in life that we may end up spending little time with our true selves.
How do you survive a car crash? How do you survive heart failure? How do you survive cancer? How do you survive old age? How do you survive retirement?
For me, survival is the wrong tree to bark up, but I know that is truth for some. And if it is your truth, then you are right to live it. But it's not mine.
I'm looking for my own truth, and Brown dwarf stars do not exist in my reality. Not today, anyway.
Actually, neither does Bill Deagle (any more)
