I am afraid of death. Suffering due to old age is as bad as death. but, i want to know what happen after i die
In some respects I am, I think most people are really. But the thought of reaching 70, 80, 90 or more and loosing my independance scares me more. I'd much rather die at 60 still able to do things for myself, than live to 100 but be reliant on care for 40 years.
Well I definately do not want to die. But I am not afraid of dying. It has nothing to do with looking forward to an afterlife or religion sinse I am an athiest. I just don't see the point in worrying about something thats going to happen someday regardless.
And after all, if one must for some reason or other leave one's body and take a new one, is it not better to make of one's death something magnificent, joyful, enthusiastic, than to make it a disgusting defeat? Those who cling on, who try by every possible means to delay the end even by a minute or two, who give you an example od frightful anguish, show that they are not conscious of their Soul... So, the conclusion: I might never wish for Death. I might never will do die. I might never be afraid to die. And in all circumstance one must will to exceed oneself.
I don't really think about it.. Life is very expencive gift for all of us - which we don't want to lose.
