End Time

The end of the universe is inevitable. It will either contract a zero size with infinite temperature, or expand to an infinite size of zero temperature, it is something we just do not know. Given the fact that this may not occur for billions upon billions of years from now(according to cosmologists), one cannot escape the entailments, humanity will not go on forever.

None of us can properly say with absolute certainty that the universe will end in a billion years or that it will survive long enough for me to see tomorrow's sunrise.

Either way, the possibility of the universe existing only for the next billion years is of little or no consequence in terms of deciding what is or isn't worth doing. Promote democracy? Who gives a shit? A free world ain't gonna do much good in about a billion years. Park my ass and watch Southpark? Now that's what I call living your life. At least when the universe blows up, I'll die laughing.

Our souls do not track our accomplishments or failures, but what it does is embrace our emotions such as happiness, sorrow, love, etc. We should experience the things that enrich our soul, because when we lieave this cruel world, it is our soul that will be brought along for the ride.

So what is still worth doing? Is life any more precious? Or is it trivialized? Or is the Death of the Universe so temporally remote that mention of it carries no weight at all? Given only 10 years left before the universe tears itself apart, what would you do?
