There are two main things that can motivate any humans into doing something: sex, and the fear of death. Death is scary, even for the fatalists. One minute we’re here and next, we’re gone. The band Epica calls it the Phantom Agony. We don’t think about it much, but when we do, we can’t help but feel completely lost. And even though we generate stories about what happens afterwards, none of us really know what’s going to happen to us. And this scares us. All of us (unless you’re a sociopath with no emotions of your own…in which case you don’t worry about this kind of stuff).
Thoughts?
