Question: the biggest mistake of my life is me!!
You: ???
Stranger: !!!
You: That actually makes perfect sense.
Stranger: it doesnt
You: But your life couldn't have mistakes without you, since without you, you wouldn't exist.
Stranger: you make it sound like it was your choice to pop up here
Stranger: your parents made you
You: True, true, but of you don't like life, you could always kill yourself... Not that that's your favorite option.
Stranger: why would i want to kill myself 0o
Stranger: makes no sense
You: I was saying that if you didn't want to be 'made to show up here' then you don't have to... Just in response to your earlier statement.
Stranger: it's not like you are conscious enough for the 1st 5-6-7 years of your life
Stranger: so you will do the living
Stranger: and make mistakes
Stranger: so no matter what mistakes arestill made
Stranger: death isnt the ultimate escape
You: Ah, you are wrong there. You are conscious enough for the first years of your life, just not totally sound. And yes, death isn't, but it is a rather simple escape. Simple and primitive, for that matter.
Stranger: how are you conscions enough
Stranger: to grasp what life is
Stranger: what it means
Stranger: killing yourself goes against most of your instincts
You: I never said you were conscious enough, though.
Stranger: and you are pretty much instict driven the 1st years of your lie
Stranger: life
Stranger: You: it's not like you are conscious enough for the 1st 5-6-7 years of your life
Stranger: i specified enough
You: I nearly died in the first years of my life. I freely chose to jump into a swimming pool, and nearly died.
You: Well, nearly killed myself, anyways. That would have gone against instinct.
Stranger: i doubt you did it on purpose
Stranger: you had no idea about the consequences
You: I can't quite remember if I did remember. I did it on purpose, but true, I did not know- almost dying was not intentional, but it can happen even after you become conscious enough to grasp the meaning of life, you may still do that without REMEBERING what may happen.
Stranger: wtf
Stranger: you cant kill yourself by accident
Stranger: well you obviously can
Stranger: but that wouldnt count as suicide
You: Yes, it wouldn't.
You: This has been quite an interesting debate, do you agree?
Stranger: nope
Stranger: it's been boring
Stranger: and mind numbing
You: To each their own.
Stranger: it makes no sense
Stranger: 1st of all
Stranger: you CANT know your biggest mistake
Stranger: until you are finished with your life
Stranger: and you analyze it
Stranger: but you cant do that post factum
Stranger: cause you are dead
You: I agree.
Stranger: so even if you are actually the biggest mistake
Stranger: you wouldnt know it for sure
Stranger: it's a paradox
Stranger: so the question makes no sense at all
Stranger: or the statement
You: It is. Life is merely the cause of your mistakes- and your demise is the climax.
Stranger: and then again
Stranger: you cant know what it would be if you never existed
You: Exactly.
Stranger: and the cause of your mistakes isnt life
Stranger: the cause is your choices
Stranger: and since it's all subjective
You: But you wouldn't be able to choose if you did not exist, would you?
Stranger: it's not even choices
Stranger: but points of view
You: Yes, it is quite subjective, and depends on points of view.
Stranger: so there you go
Stranger: it makes no sense talking about it
You: Nothing makes sense, yet everything makes sense. Everything is nothing, and nothing is everything.
Stranger: everything makes sense
Stranger: but when you are talking about death
Stranger: things stop making sense
Stranger: especially if you have to think from a point beyond death
Stranger: it's like trying to understand a singularity
You: Exactly. There is no correct answer to anything we are trying to fathom.
Stranger: 2+2*2 = ?
You: Math is merely a creation of man to make our simple minds organize things more easily, as in our nature.
Stranger: 2+2*2 = ?
You: Everything is a subject for debate.
Stranger: 2+2*2 = ?
You: If I remember my lessons correctly, 10.
