I completely forgot about that. Awesome!

Eh...No, I'm not really scared of death, mostly because I rarely think of it, except when I make up stories that don't involve me.

It certainly makes me uneasy but I try not to think about it.

I think about it 24/7 365 days a yr for over a decade now and am not afraid O.O

Not that I'm trying to take away your peace of mind or anything, cause acceptance of death would probably make me feel a ****load better, but that sounds like nonsense. Unless you believe in an afterlife then the end is just the end. How will my dying be a beginning of anything except for decay?

It's just a roundabout way of saying there has to be a beginning and an end. You were born therefore you must die/come to an end.

I worry about dying young, before I've had a chance to experience life to the fullest. Especially from some disease.

When you die, your body becomes a host for various bacteria, and insects, giving them life. Circle of life and all that. It may seem silly, but it's selfish to want to live forever, when you are only able to live because of life given to you by plants and animals.

We are host to bacteria and insects our whole lives. Many of those would rely on the host staying healthy.

I'm more scared of not doing enough in life before death. I want to accomplish many things before my time. I've already done loads of things people my age haven't but it's not enough.

I'm also scared of my life being snatched from me unreasonably by disease and suffering. If I knew my death was instantaneous I would have more peace of mind.
