Q. Where are you going when you die?
New Zealand
A. I suspect I am going to cease existing. It's almost incomprehensible. Then I will go into an incinerator and be burned into ashes.
I can't know for sure, of course. Nobody can because nobody has observed death and reported back. All signs point to permanent cessation of perceptive, reflective and cognitive function though. The end of all consciousness, of all thought and personhood. Weird to think about.
I wonder what will happen to my mind in those microseconds before it all ends. Some people theorise that those few fractions of a second pass as an almost infinitely long stretch of time for the person experiencing it. Ho-Hum, I can't preoccupy myself with it though; there's so much to do!
