You have a deadly illness. The doctor said you only have a few months left to live; unfortunately science can't cure you. But you have no belief at all, you simply understand this nasty truth, you just think you will die and will never get back. You don't create problems, you just don't think unnecessarily contradictory.

Are you sure you don't need to think about it too?
Actually, I already knew what you posted.
