That's what I wanted to believe too. That it was some kind of objectively right decision to make. And I was actually quite convinced that it was. Until a week or so later, I no longer was. A compelling rational case can be made for either position. (Having cool people around, though, can really tip the scales.)

I understand that.
Also, occupying my thoughts works. Example: this is fun.

Yeah -- that's basically what I did too. I just started writing. I don't think it's entirely unhealthy to see all of life as temporary occupation of sorts.

It's painful sometimes, then, to imagine a static universe, and that time is an illusion that only we are subject to because of our consciousness.
