The best thing the universe ever gave us is that we’ll all be forgotten. That when we die, despite any pain or fear or embarrassment we experienced during our lives, despite any heartbreak or grief, we get to be dispersed back into nothingness.
Its a brave feeling , knowing You’ll get a blank slate at the end. You get a brief glimmer of consciousness to do with what you will and then it’s given back to the universe again. Is it redemption on the grandest scale ?
Oblivion isn’t scary; it’s the closest thing to genuine absolution of sin that Anyone can imagine.
