1- Hashem really wants us to live forever, death is only temporary, in order to remove the connection to unholiness so that when we come to life we can live forever. We need to look at all good and holy things as eternal, and unholiness and death as temporary.
2- A person is automatically affected by whatever they look at, listen to, and learn about. Unlike angels, a person cannot be involved, even intellectually, in something immoral or unholy and not be affected in any way. Sometimes we have “the fear of missing out” if we don’t know about a certain event or topic of discussion etc. But in truth, we should have a greater concern of the affect certain knowledge or ideas will have on us, more than the concern of “missing out.” The mistake of Adam was that he felt missing out if he didn’t know about evil and how to rectify it directly etc., but in truth, by not knowing about it he would have completely eliminated it on an altogether different level. The Samech Mem was angry that Adam might just completely ignore him and thereby nullify him entirely. There is a similar unholy force that exists nowadays that is angry that there are people who purify themselves and detach themselves from any unholy ideas, so it tries to convince them to at least get into a discussion about it... A person needs to let himself be happy and proud to not know about or discuss unholy things and feel that he is not missing out in any way.
3- Each one of us has two methods of how to deal with unholiness and extract the Sparks of Holiness from the things in our lives. One way is to be invested in those things, like working to make money and use the money to serve Hashem, to eat food and use that energy to serve Hashem etc. But the higher process of elevating the Sparks happens automatically: When a Jew puts him or herself completely into prayer or Torah study or a certain mitzvah, then they bring so much Light of Hashem into their life that it automatically elevates everything.
