How do you feel about death?

Question: How do you feel about death!?

Do you ever think about it seriously and do you think it's foolish not do so!?

Do you feel comfortable with the idea of ceasing to be a human being one day!?

Do you think death will be one hell of an adventure :)!?

Are you afraid!?

Do you think the road ahead can be called future after you're dead and gone!?

How certain are you that this life is all that matters!?

Say you discovered the fountain of life!. Would you drink from it!? Would you keep it to yourself or share it with you friends and family (those you like :D)!? Would you like the world to know about it!?

Hope for the best, but plan for the worst!. A good aphorism to live by!.

The first part means not stressing out about it!. Everyone will be happy to tell you all kind of things about death!. How it happens!. When and how it will happen to you!. But it's all a crock!. Nobody REALLY knows!. Nobody can even really say it will happen to you!. Maybe, as you say, the fountain of youth will be discovered tomorrow!. If the future were certain, there'd be no need to go there at all!.

That reduces death to just a dark room!. It's something and we don't know what it is!. Children might fear monsters in a dark room, but we're not children!. We can think about the things that might be there, and we can prepare ourselves for any dark room by just learning about our selves, experiencing new things, and sampling the large variety of well-lit rooms that are available to us!. It is people who are ready for a challenge of any kind who have the least to fear from death!.

Speaking for myself, I see so many well-lit rooms around me, that I'd have no problem exploring them all for centuries and maybe even millennia if the opportunity is afforded to me!. Perhaps there are wonders even greater in that dark room!.!.!. but there are so many wonders here that I see no reason to rush at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm honestly not afraid of dying, but given the choice I'd opt for instantaneous rather than pain and suffering - that scares me more!. I worry about my children and how they would not have me to love them rather than my own non-existence!. I do think about death a fair bit,but I am in a profession that confronts me with it everyday!. I've seen many people die,everyone faces it differently!. The future will exist without me just as so much past exists where i wasn't a participant!. I put my existence into perspective in this way - if I was brutally murdered on the shores of the ocean one night, the tide would still come in and the sun would still rise!. I also don't think death is the end,but have no concept of what lies beyond!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

When i think of death i think of 3 scenario's!.!.to die and become nothing, or to die and go to heaven or hell, or die and become spirit!. I don't really believe in god so i have always thought that when we die we die, the end, but lately i have caught myself thinking what if i'm wrong about god!? would i go to hell!? Then i think that not to believe in him in this one short life time!.!.does that warrant an eternity in hell!? So i kinda don't believe it does which makes me question that whole theory!. I do like the idea that we cary on in spirit with our loved ones after we die in a kind of heaven or afterlife place but that seems a little too good to be true!.
So i'm left thinking that when we die, we're gone for good and don't or will never exist ever again!. I don't worry too much about this because i wont remember my life when i'm dead will i, i wont be conscious of it or of myself!.!.so why worry about it today!?!.!.!.!.mm that was deep for me! lol!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The only certain thing there is to life, is of course death!.!.!. we all know that we cannot go on forever!. I never dwell on the idea of ceasing to be a human being, but concentrate on the present and live life and make the best of what each day brings!. Well to think about what death or the future wud bring!.!. wud only distract me!.!. i feel it is better to concentrate on what u have and value it !. And if I found the fountain of life, i wud certainly drink from it and would also like to share it with those who are ready to listen and understand, and not necessarily limit that to family and friends

Life is just changed!.!.!.not taken away!.!.!.(my definition of death) Www@QuestionHome@Com

All good things come to an end
Anyone who has lost someone will think about it seriously
No point of fearing the inevitable
I'm not certain this life does matter!. But how can we say that it doesn't!.
I'm not religious but i like to think that there is something after this life but not necessarily "heaven/hell" and such!.
As for fountain of youth!.Kids are so addicted to being grown up so young and adults are in mid life crisis limbo!. It would not serve much purpose other than another massive queue and celebrity poop!.

Treat everyday like it's your last!. It probably is!.

i think death would be interusting because i would like to see where i would go, if thr really is heaven, hell, outter darkness, pergatory, limbo, w/e it may be called, if wut is said to happen would rly be thr!. but then id be afraid to know i wuz sumwhere no, well!.!.!. fun, like outter darkness/hell!. i take this very seriously, n i rly wuld like to know!. i am sum wut afraid cuz i donno where i wuld go!. i wuld not drink from the fountain of life, cuz i think i wuld eventually get tired of living, but killin myself might be hard to me 2 do!. wut about you man!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Each night we experience a loss of outer waking consciousness akin to death!. Our dreams are indications of how we'll first experience our waking subconscious after passing on!.

Life is only the beginning!. Once we die, thats when the mystery starts!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

death scares me, what happens after we die!?
do we go somewhere, or do we simply just die and thats it!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

!.!.!.an experience we will all share once in our life!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Death is a truth!. No one has escaped it nor any one will escape it!. The one who has born has to die either the same day or 100 year later!.
God has given me life to live & more over that a healthy body & sound mind to enjoy it & add colour to it!.
I definately know i HAVE to die one day & that the fact but i need not to worry b'cuz i have found fountain of immortality & thats: "do something for humanity, for that U will be remembered for, & always live in memory of others for ages & in such a way u will never die!."
But obviously for this we need to live a little longer but still thats not in our hand, so just do ur job & forget about it!. OTHER WISE IT WILL SCARE U TO DEATH & U WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LIVE UR LIFE TO ITS FULLEST!.

I am truly afraid of death!. It is the only thing i fear!.
I do think about it, I've spoken to my family members about it, because life is too short!.!. I let them know that when i die, i don't want to be burned so they need to cough up money to bury me!.!.lol!.!. I also told my son if ever i died and he needed to speak to me, He could just look up at the sky and i'll be listening and watching over him!. I sure don't think death would be an adventure, not at all!. Once you're dead, you're dead what's great about that!. Yes i would drink from the fountain of life and live forevere if i could!. Yeah, i would tell those i like only!.!.lol!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
