Watching that video kind of scared me. You spend your high school career picking certain courses to get you to where you wanna be in the future. You save up a lot of money so one day you can pay for university or collage. You spend all that time sitting at home or in the library studying for you exams so you can finally put all your hard work into something that you really want. But now it's a year later and you find yourself still sitting at home searching for a job. It's a little scary to think that you spend the majority of your life in school sort of "training" for you life ahead, just to be left with nothing. I myself would like to work somewhere in the medical field, but with all this new technology being developed to get certain jobs done, makes me wonder if there will even be any opportunities for me one day to start a career.
THERE WILL COME A TIME, WHEN ALL OF US ARE DEAD. ALL OF US. THERE WILL COME A TIME WHEN THERE ARE NO HUMAN BEINGS REMAINING TO REMEMBER THAT ANYONE EVER EXISTED OR THAT OUR SPECIES EVER DID ANYTHING. THERE WILL BE NO ONE LEFT TO REMEMBER ARISTOTLE OR CLEOPATRA, LET ALONE YOU. EVERYTHING THAT WE DID AND BUILT AAND WROTE AND THOUGHT AND DISCOVERED WILL BE FORGOTTEN AND ALL OF THIS WILL HAVE BEEN FOR NAUGHT. MAYBE THAT TIME IS COMING SOON AND MAYBE IT IS MILLIONS OF YEARS AWAY ,BUT EVEN IF WE SURVIVE THE COLLAPSE OF OUR SUN, WE WILL NOT SURVIVE FOREVER. THERE WAS TIME BEFORE ORGANISMS EXPERIENCED CONSCIOUSNESS, AND THERE WILL BE A TIME AFTER. AND IF THE INEVITABILITY OF HUMAN OBLIVION WORRIES YOU, I ENCOURAGE YOU TO IGNORE IT. GOD KNOWS THAT’S WHAT EVERYONE ELSE DOES.
