If I didn't believe you were Rosim before, I do now. lol

Thanks ^^.

Live life to its fullest. I can't believe I'm saying this but it's true. YOLO. You do only live once, you should enjoy it, take risks.
I enjoy playing games, I don't find much enjoyment in visiting the worlds as much as I would.
I don't enjoy life too much, but I would rather live than die.
Plus the best things are in life.
Family, Material Items, This emotion we call 'love' [It's real, just ask science, social behavior is as important as anything these days], GTA V, people, enemies, freinds, etc.

Death has been a common topic these days...

I try to live it as well as I can, too. And it's true that YOLO applies in this case.
And I was not talking about traveling. If visiting other countries had been my main focus, I would drop school and continue my travels forever. Instead, I am pursuing my studies in order to become a programmer, hopefully game developer, and provide to this world nothing good but amusement, while stimulating my brain cells. I fancy myself as a thinker, but in the end I will have done nothing helpful to anyone, including myself. But that's life, and as you say we live it to its fullest, no matter what.
Death is a common topic, you know it more than we do unfortunately. But is death this sad? Isn't life already sad, in a way? We try to live it as well as we can. Because we know what awaits us. Our future can be perceived. Job or no job, wife or no wife, children or no children. Not that many outcomes, huh? But what about death? We know it's the ultimate phase anyway. What is so frightening about it? It's that we don't know what it is, for nobody ever came back to tell us about it. Are you religious or not? I don't think that really matters. Because books and traditions cannot remove that uncertainty, either way. If the idea of heaven was that appealing, people with cancer would not try to get cured, they would not save their children's lives. What about hell? Why do criminals commit suicide, if they think prison is nothing compared to the burning fires of Satan? That's because deep in our minds, we don't know what awaits us. Do we get to reincarnate? Do we just disappear? Do we still have a floating conscience? Do we get to see lost ones? No idea. At all. That's the dreadful part of death. But you know what? Even if we were to disappear without soul or anything, we would not realize it. And it's not as if living people would care anyways. Believers always think that their lost loved ones still listen from up there. But what about the family of criminals? Do you think they suffer everyday thinking that their father is being forever burned and whipped by the devil? I don't think so, I really don't. That's why I don't really believe in anything, I don't ever want to speculate on things I cannot know about. Death is a transition to a new phase, which could be void. But it's still a transition. We should nevertheless take advantage of our first phase before leaving.
And now that I mention it, what about birth? Isn't it a transition phase as well? From void too, or perhaps not? And I am not necessarily implying reincarnation. What if there was a pre-life phase, and that life as we conceive it is in fact the hell or heaven of the populations on the previous phase? I'm blurting things out loud because I think too much, but we don't really know if there is something before and after the concept of "life".

I think what happened in Boston isn't that much of a tragedy. It's just over-mediatized.
They were saying that since the shooting, Boston's streets have been empty, aside from hobos.
Here, here's the real tragedy. Hobos. People who've lost everything. People who can't enjoy marathons. Who can only enjoy getting a dime three times a day.
United States, always attracting journalists where the explosions are. Tragedies aren't always about people being murdered with guns and bombs.
Words hit just as much. And much more people are suffering in the background.

Murders happen every day. Bombs explode everyday.
But since people were running for glory, it's become a tragedy.
I'm sorry, media, but that's a completely biased point of view that you're trying to feed us.

To me the hobo thing, eh.

But the whole bombs thing every day. Yes. It happens all the time. Same innocent lives lost, but just because they aren't North American, it's meaningless.

50 Dead.
4 died in America.

But I do also understand that it's a bigger deal because in the US they don't expect this. In Iraq they do. In Pakistan they do.
And the corrupt/lazy governments don't do much to stop it.
4 people getting killed in a first world country will always be a bigger deal than 50 being killed in a third-world or lesser country. In the media's eyes.
