The experience we have is always changing, even if our material condition stay the same. That's what I mean here.

> Maybe the people who died on the bridge would’ve hated surviving?

Sure, at that moment, but what about 3 days later, or 3 months, who can tell?

So, my argument here is in life, nothing is permanent, while death is.

> my argument here is in life, nothing is permanent

Your argument is based only on your own experience and what you’ve chosen to hear from others.

Can you acknowledge the possibility that for some people the miserable experience of their life is permanent?

But can you acknowledge that these people are probably reinforcing the miserable experience by their own? And that's why it looks like it is permanent?
No, I can’t.

I can acknowledge it might be true for some of those people. But there are a whole fucking lot of people.

But when it comes to this, I’m not going to be so arrogant and self-centered as to say something that I believe applies to all of them.
