I just wanted to drop in and offer a recommendation. Check out some lectures by Alan Watts, his philosophy about life and death is uniquely comforting. In short, he essentially presents the idea that, should you subscribe to the Big Bang theory, it would imply that since we are all made of what was once “everything” before it went boom, that we’re all basically just the universe experiencing itself.
I may not agree with everything he presented, but a lot of it sets the stage for some really interesting ideas. If nothing else, he’s got a soothing way of speaking, haha.
