Schopenhauer is essentially saying "Life goes by faster and faster, and we remember less as we get older. It's short and all effort is vanity as it will soon come to an end. Everything becomes more and more insignificant and then we are obliterated. Isn't that wonderful? What a relief!" All the lamentations on the brevity of human life, so often repeated for sorrowful effect in tragedy and poetry, become joyous comforts to the man who holds human life to be a terrible nightmare.
i allowed myself to edit Mr Schopping Hour: "Sometimes, when we long to be somewhere far away, we are really just longing to have the time we spent there back again, the days when we were younger, and it is precisely then and in those moments, that - time mocks us by wearing the mask of space - and if were to travel to said a place, we would see how much we have been deceived by ourselves." greeting from a really nice beach in México....
A couple of years, presently, into my seventh decade, I’m startled to find the one named, “the somberness of old age” has caught up to me , and reduced his stride now to walk in step with his new companion. How novel.
Great video, takes a lot of “Time” to do theses breakdowns, much appreciated. I wonder though how have things like the internet and TH-cam affected and changed our perceptions on time???
Quite a horrifying thought about what the young are fed in ‘novels’ and fairy stories of ‘living happily ever after’. What the young are fed in now in social media and the internet… what are we producing???

Like a powerful computer with few programs installed does less than a cheap one with all the right programs.

No attention or reflection to things insignificant or disagreeable will mean they wont come up in memory
