Or does it scare you? For me it's really comforting.

I'm not scared of dying as much of I'm scared not knowing what the future holds. It just upsets me how far technology can advance and not ever knowing.

It makes me impatient. I need it to happen now.

I alternate
sometimes it fills me with dread, other times it comforts me

I don't think I'll live forever or that there's an afterlife, so I am kinda sad that I'll never know what the future will bring for humanity (and I am most interested in extraterrestrial life), but it is comforting that none of it really matters for me

As far as I'm concerned, immortality would inevitably result in insanity. Or maybe just being trapped for all eternity.

neither
