Default Are you scared of death?

Well

I'm petrified personally. I think about it a lot, I also think about how quickly time has gone (I'm still young), it's scary. I was in bed the other night and couldn't fall asleep and I was thinking about how quickly time goes and how the things we don't expect to get here eventually do get here; I remember being in year 2 of primary school and thinking my exams in year 4 were ages away but they still came. Becoming a teenager, leaving school, turning 18, getting married, having kids etc... they all happen eventually, then I thought of my death being here before I know it and started panicking

What about you guys?

No I don't, it can't be too bad. I would much prefer living but a fear of dying doesn't hold me back much. That doesn't mean that I'm a thrillseeker, it's stupid to maim yourself for the sake of not being afraid of death. I'm pretty optimistic about the process of death.

How do you know that all of those things will happen before death finds you?

Some freak accident can happen at any time.

Live in the moment and enjoy yourself, when your time comes it'll come. No need to worry about it happening.

I don't, but, my point was how you think things won't come here but they do.

You are right of course though but yeah that's what I meant, I started thinking about that and then felt like I was having a panic attack.

No lol, if I died tomorrow, I'd leave a greater legacy in death than I ever could in life. when you die that's it, your body will be laid in eternal peace slowly decaying and getting eaten by earthworm. I don't fear death, I welcome it.

I'm not afraid of being dead, I'm afraid of getting dead.

I'm more saddened about the things I'll never get to do rather than dying itself.

I'm not afraid of death personally but I do have young kids so I worry about how they would cope with losing me. I want to be here as long as possible for them but the idea of actually being dead doesn't phase me that much. It's true about it going quickly though. My dad was freaking out when he turned eighty. I'm 45 so five years off fifty which is kind of daunting but ultimately I kind of feel like fretting over a legacy is pretty pointless. Even if you do something awesome it will fade into history eventually. It's really only pride that makes it an issue. Just enjoy your life and help others to enjoy their time.
