oblivion.
" There will come a time
when all of us are d e a d
All of us
There will come a time
when there are no human beings
r e m a i n i n g to remember that
anyone ever e x i s t e d
or that our species ever did anything
Everything that we did
and built and wrote
and thought and discovered
will be f o r g o t t e n
Maybe that
time is coming s o o n
and maybe it is millions of years away
But even if we s u r v i v e
the collapse of our sun
we will not
survive f o r e v e r
There was time
before organisms experiences c o n s c i o u s n e s s
and there will be
time after
And if
the i n e v i t a b i l i t y
of human oblivion worries you
I encourage you to i g n o r e it. "
- John Green, The Fault In Our Stars
