    The concept of time has always kind of bothered me. the speed of time and s---. Like it's almost 3 AM in the morning and I'm coming to the realization that it's already 2016... and before I know it, it'll be 2017. Then 2018 and so on and so forth. It's gotten to the point where I want to wake up super early and stay up really late in order to get as much out of the day as possible before it ends... It totally f---s up my sleep schedule.

    Then it mixes itself with the thought of death and there being no guarantee for what's next. ughhhh. does this kind of s--- bother anyone else?

    No because when you're dead you won't care, might as well focus on living. I could die tonight and I wouldn't mind life's treated me good

    Not to sound like a condescending prick, that's just my view on the matter

    It does cross my mind every now and then but thats just further justification for making sure you live life to the fullest. Continuing to have a dream no matter how distant it seems, find something and/or someone that gives you a meaning to live, travelling to places and whatnot and h--- even offer a helping hand to anyone. Like the Jiggaman said "f--- tomorrow as long as the night before was sweet"

    I definitely relate man. I really don't get a lot of sleep, usually only get around 3 or 4 hours per night and part of the reason is because I hate missing out of life and the idea that we sleep through like 1/3rd of our life span kind of annoys me. I try to embrace that death is unavoidable and I just hope I can live as long as I can so that I can partake in more cool s--- that life will have to offer as the world becomes more advanced & complex and times become more interesting. It might be irrational FOMO at work but hey.

    Oh I also dont really care for the concept of time, I just think its silly to me. I just try not to get caught up in the concept of time age and decay and try to consider every day the same although that stuff is unavoidable too. Its better to be oblivious to all that and stay young at heart then get caught up with getting older and get all anxious from it.

    I fucken hate those moments where you start thinking about mortality.

    the worst part is that my dad's getting old and it's becoming more and more clear and when the thought of him passing away crosses my mind i want to k--- myself. Like right now.

    I had trouble with this as a kid. Hated the thought of anyone dying and the concept of getting older.

    I don't want to see anyone I know die and being aware that it's something I'll have to deal with, but can't prepare for, sucks. I just try to forget about it and worry about it as it comes, but it's still a s--- feeling when I think about it.

    Death is something we sure think about a lot for something that only happens once

    idk if it's just me but I don't.. see people age around me. Like, it's like they've been this old all my life. I only start feeling like "holy f--- time flies" if I see pics or something from way back.. or even hear a song from back in the day

    After my best friend died a few months ago, I've realised that I have to live to the fullest. It may sounds corny, but it is what it is. Time will pass anyway, so I can't waste it for bs.
    But yeah... Feels are unavoidable sometimes.
