You have inverted the temporal arrow. The question is not what's behind, but how much was left yet to do. Deeds left undone -- that is the tragedy.

  If you've done more than your share, you have earned your retirement and a death without regrets that is no tragedy.

    I hope I never earn death.
    • QAPereo 9y ago
      We’re all getting it, might as well earn it.

        I'd rather wait 100 trillion years and be done in by the heat death of the universe than any other alternative.
        • QAPereo 9y ago
          Sure, but sadly that’s no option. Edit: Get back to me in a few milllion years, I guess,
          • kobeya 9y ago
            Prove it.
    • robotresearcher 9y ago
      You already did.

        too late to edit: We all earned death the moment we were born. It's part of the deal of being alive and mortal. No malice intended towards the grandparent poster!
