How do you feel about Death?

Post Reply New Topic

When I watch a movie where a humans life is in peril the human is all freaked out about it. If there is a scene where the human has a gun to his head the human will often blubber,"I have a wife and child!".

I do not understand this. If I was in a similar situation I would probably say, "Do what you need to do." PAIN I fear. But death? Eh, so what. I do not know why this is. Any thoughts?

what is going on? How did this manage to show up 3 time?

We have a glitch in teh server. im emailing alex now.

The wife and child thing I can understand. But death is a release from pain. Not strictly painful in and of itself. Why worry about dying? No one gets out of life alive anyway.

Death to me means, relieve from this world that i am useless in/and have but VERY few pleaseures in, no women for me ever, no friends, i am one bored/bitter/loner aspie...maybe eternal fire would be at least somewhat more relaxing than ebing alive in this world, at least for a little.

The wife and child thing is love, and concern for what will happen to them if you die... unless the guy it saying that to try to get the killer to feel pitty/guilt and save his life.

I agree with you though. If I was about to get shot in the head I certainly wouldnt feel it for long. If I deserved to die I'd've accepted it already.

Death means I can't do anything anymore. I can't think, I can't feel, I can't do anything. All my senses and my awareness is gone, and in the end, it won't have mattered that I existed at all. I am scared out of my mind of not being able to think anymore.

For me all death is is the start of the next big adventure.

Hmm, difficult one. I fear the process of death...especially if it involves not being able to breathe. I used to fear not being here anymore...I recall vividly as a child of about 7 or 8, sitting in the car after hearing a friend of my dad's had died, or maybe it was the father of a friend, and all I could do was ask about death and in my mind, death at that time meant total nothingness... just this total darkness.

I spent over 4 years quite closely involved in spiritual studies and spiritual forums etc, so I suppose my view of death is at least at some level coloured by that, although my logical mind could never find enough proof for myself that life goes on. Still, at some level, I do seem to feel that life goes on. I just have not found answers to that which satisfy my thirst for logic lol. I have seen mediums, and indeed ...well, let's not go into that territory as I am past having the energy to debate my experiences...needless to say, with my past experiences, many might have belief by now.

Most times, I see death as a relief from life. I am not one of those who can embrace life and get the most out of each day as my tendency to clinical depression and my isolation make that almost impossible...though Summer makes it a little easier. I suppose my main fear about death is being forgotten...which wouldn't be hard to do as I know so few people nowadays, and to my mind, even those who's lives I impacted or improved during my spiritual phase will forget. I want to leave something tangible of myself behind, that is for sure. That is an aim of mine. Something that will bring joy to others.

How do I feel about death? Personally, I'm against it.

It is the only certainity we have in life, but as I have lost a close relative very recently, I feel a lot of upset when thinking about death.

Agreed. there are many many possible things that happen. No sense in worrying about it at all. Deal with it when it happens and by that I mean "fully accept it." < -- not in a suicidal way but in a more "positive" way.

haha yeah i'm pretty much afriad of dying. if there is an afterlife i'm defintly not going to like floating out of my body thats for shure. i need gravity

I'm not scared of death. Though I don't believe in a god, I DO believe we start something else entirely.

im not really scared of death. When i look back at all the **** that i have been trough in my life thus far, im actually looking forward to it

Death is good. Life is bad. Garlic is pwnj.
