We only perceive the world with our minds for a short time before we die. Pain is horrible and starving children experience pain for the short period of time that they are here. Once they die they never existed. They only exist in the memory of the individual who is still alive and has witness their events...but they die soon as well. I never made a false premise, unless I worded something wrong. There is still a you for a short period in time. The conscious mind is just a by product of the body and really the only thing to ever get destroyed permanently.
