How long will you last?

Answer 1

Depending on how you mean the question, this has several possible answers.

The first choice is that you last until you die, in which case the universe will easily outlast you, as it already has so many others.

The second possibility is that you are composed of atoms, which will continue to exist long after your body has passed away and returned to dust. In that sense, you will last until the universe itself ends, or until all the atoms themselves have decayed into nothingness.

The third idea involves the belief that you have a soul, an essence. In that case, you will continue to exist after death, bound to all the other souls which have passed on. Such a state, if it truly does exist, might very well outlast the universe itself.

The last interpretation covers the idea that people will last only so long as other people remember them. If your friends and family keep your memory alive, and share it with their descendants, then you will have achieved a kind of immortality, a small measure of fame.
