The funny thing is, they usually feel the same way, sort of. Like I live life with no hope or anything. i have tons of hope, for reachable things, and some for unreachable. I still buy lottery tickets :D

Yeah, I hate having to explain to people that I am not depressed about my life ending. I like this explanation of life after death given by Socrates: "an eternal sleep, undisturbed even by dreams." Sounds pretty relaxing and comforting if you ask me. I would hate to have to spend eternity praising the Lord in heaven (I couldn't stand an hour of it on Sunday, growing up.) And, well ... Nobody wants to go to hell.
