Immortality
Observation bias fools us into assuming that our individual lives mark the end and the beginning.
Our births, our deaths and what's in between is what makes a life that ends when it ends. And that is why we render ourselves mortal.
But "life" is not those individual lives. Life is the encompassing of all that breathes,
All that changes,
All that grows,
All that develops,
We humans are only one component.
Just like the death of a cell in a body doesn't mean death for the body,
our deaths do not end life.
This life we live is immortal, by all means. We just change forms.
Our true immortality, just like anything else, is only a change in perspective.
