You and me both. I know some atheists don't seem to be troubled by it, but I can't seem to help it. The thought that gives me the most comfort is that other people will live after I'm gone. And possibly other universes will be born.
Or...and I hate to admit it...the thought that maybe we're wrong. Maybe there is some kind of afterlife.
I know there's no evidence for it at all. It's just a thought. Like thinking that finding a time-forgotten valley full of dinosaurs in the Amazon would be cool. Ain't gonna happen, but...would be cool.
A Gemma is forever.
