Space does it for me and the fact that it will thousands of years or maybe never before we are able to explore what's out there. I think our only hope is from an alien life form that has an energy source not found on earth.
If there is an end to the universe,which I don't think there is, what's out there?
As others have said, time, knowing in a few hundred years my existence and my kids existence won't matter to anyone, just like millions that have died since the first human walked the earth.
If the universe started with a big bang imagine how big that mass was to hold everything that's in the universe now.
How a star can burn for billions of years. And how everything in the universe just seemed to figure itself out and work together to not continue destroying itself. Sure seems like someone had a hand in lining it all out.

I've tried reading different things about it, but I just don't get "slam poetry."

Literally everything. My head isn't soft like yours.

This. Having lost a family member last week, it’s given me some really brutal anxiety attacks the last 8-9 days. The thought of not existing in some way, shape or form, is terrifying.
I struggled with this in high school. Not so much that I had bad anxiety but I used to question in my mind what if would be like for eternity to never exist. It would make me sick to my stomach. I spoke with people before about it and someone gave me a different viewpoint and stated something down the lines of time. When you die time won’t exist anymore. And if you believe in Heaven and it truly is a place, it has to be eternal greatness and I wouldn’t mind being there. But yes, it warps my simple mind.

And why can we post a pic of her shirtless just because she identifies as a man. But she really a chick

I thought that over the long week-end I would try to figure out "eternity". It's not going well so far.
Last week while I was driving to the courthouse I had this strange "What is life all about/Why am I here?" thought. There is so much that I do not understand.

If it's flaccid enough, I can wrap my head around anything.

Gravity. How does an atom millions and millions of miles away from another atom know it is there and want to go to it.
Also, hot chicks attracted to douchebags.

Hell, there could be millions of earth like planets.
But the distances are so vast we might never really know
Agreed, agreed and agreed. Hell, if, as it's been proposed, each star is highly likely to have its own solar system consisting of who knows what and how many "planets".......that's an unfathomable number of potential earthlike planets. I feel comfortable here truly saying it "boggles the mind".

Extrapolating upon what we have observed so far with the Kepler telescope and other telescopes, there are about 40,000,000,000 earth-like planets in our galaxy. 1 in 5 stars, 20%, have a planet orbiting within its habitable zone.

Alright, interesting. Thanks for that. I genuinely can't wrap my head around it. Directly on topic.

In a thousand years, no one will care about Tom Brady or Michael Jordan.
How the brain produces consciousness?
Why do some people become beloved eg Fred Rogers or Albert Einstein and other people like charles Manson and Derrick Todd Lee become evil demonic serial killers ?
Does Free Will actually exist ?

Space, time, humankind, etc. can only exist if they are observed by a conscious mind. If you lose all consciousness and cease to be, then all else ends with your death and loss of consciousness.
When someone else dies, it does not count because you personally are still filled with consciousness and the ability to observe. Therefore, all that exists resides only in your own consciousness. And what we call the universe and time ceases with your death.
As the Hindus have been known to say — you are or you aren’t.
Enjoy life and be responsible; we are all counting on you for our existence.

Why the Monty Hall Problem isn’t a 50/50 proposition whether you switch doors or not.
The prize is either in the box you picked, or it’s in the box that Monty didn’t take away. That’s obviously 50/50. Only it’s not. Somehow.

It's only mind boggling if you believe that nonsense they feed us. They don't actually know.
