anyone afraid of death?

[graves]

No not really i don't want to die gruesomly but No I'm not afraid

 

[KingJiggyWiggy]

Well I don't want to die yet but it doesn't matter as long as I don't die in a torture room. I'd rather die of old age or in battle.

I'm only terrified of death when I imagine myself drowning.

I had an awful dream last night where I was sat in my car and it rolled over a cliff into the sea (why I was in my car on a cliff, I have no idea) and I couldn't find the handbrake or the door handle.

I didn't get back to sleep after it, and it's the same almost every night

Silly I know, but it just shows how occupied my brain is by it.

Well, naturally I fear death. But I don't let it govern my life... though perhaps I should. In the end, I think that the fear of death is what caused people to create civilization in the first place. We realized we were mortal, and we didn't like it, so we started telling each other to coexist peacefully to ensure each other's long survival... Humankind's evolution in a simplified nutshell.
Maybe if I started fearing death more, I'd be more motivated to do things with the time I have.

But as it is, I do not let death bother me. I laugh at the absurdity of it all, which is at least a decent way to preserve one's sanity, I suppose. I like to think that I'm immortal until the time comes, because a premature death would simply be crappy writing on my life's author's part.
Watch hubris get to me for that blasphemy.

I can't understand, though, why so many people clearly state that they don't fear death, but the process of dying... Unless it's something like Nicolette... drowning is one of the worst deaths possible. The worst would be, of course... No, nevermind.
But in the end, the thought that one might die a horrible way of death is freaky... but only the prospect of death itself is something that really moves me if I think about it.
In the end, death... is just boring.
Even suffering is better than an eternity of nothing. That's what I think. It's easy for me to say because I've never suffered as much as some people, but in the end, we all have our own spectrums of emotion. When we die, the whole spectrum is gone.

Bottom line: As long as I have music, there is no need for fear.

I suppose I kinda fear death.But more than anything I fear people who are close to me dying.I couldnt handle it if one of my best friends died.

 

[Teebs]

I can agree with pika, losing someone close to you is a heavy burden for a bit.

I can also go with not afraid of dying, but how I die.

 

[E-Jolteon]

I don't care. I die, hey, what more could happen? I'm not afraid of death, but more of what causes it.

 

[Uchiha.Sanosuke]

Ehh...more or less. Just a casual wondering every once in a while...but it's not like the sort of thing where I'm paranoid about it all the time.

Take it when it comes, that's all.

 

[Skywalker]

I don't fear death so much as I fear the event that will take me to it.

Yeah, I've never really understood why people are afraid of dying. "It's not how long your life is, it's how you live it that's important."

 

[digitalmaster287]

Not really. I mean I would imagine it to be just like being asleep, and I'm not really afraid of that. And theres always the chance of resurrection of one of the many religions to be right.

 

[Smash_Gigas]

Depends on the type of death.
Quick Death: No. Suffering Death: Yes. Eternal Death: Yes. There's many more I won't go into.
