Life is too short for me to worry about something I have no control over that I don't even know will happen. People ask 'if Earth is going to be swallowed by a black hole or if there is some disturbance in the spacetime continuum should we worry about it?'. My answer is 'no' because you won't know about it until it crosses your... your place in space-time. Your beats come to you when nature decides it's the right time... be it the speed of sound, the speed of light, the speed of electrical impulses we will forever be victims of the time delay between information around us and our capacity to receive it.
