(Back story to this question)
I remember when I was younger , for the longest time, I had an extreme fear of dying. This fear began after my father explained death to meat my uncle's funeral. He told me that everyone dies, and he ended off his explanation by asking me, "Are you ready to die?". Looking back at it now, I think it was inappropriate him to ask me that at such a young age, but I personally found it helpful in the long run.

The months following my uncles funeral, I constantly had the thought of death on my mind. I found the thought of no longer having an existing conscious terrifying.


Back to present time, I was recently discussing the Purge threats in America with one of my friends, and she asked me "are you scared of dying?". I thought about it and answered no. I don't know what changed over the years, but now I have no fear of death.

I'm not saying I'm willing to die though. No one really wants to die and I still got shit to do :hint:

Anyways, my question for you is, are you afraid to die?

Some argue that living in this horrible world is even worse than death.

Not afraid of death itself but the journey to it

Currently, yes I am.

I am afraid to die an unnatural death, I've kind of had a fear of drowning, I've also had a fear of dieing by being murdered.
Well, murder isn't that bad I'm just afraid that it's a brutal murder.

My current biggest worries are that I die an uncompleted life.
I want to live and do things that I've always wanted.

Well, they aren't much but I still want to experience them.
For example...... one day..... when I've had a child... I've had a dream for the longest time to go see the stars with him/her and my future wife/husband.

Why do I say husband? I might be gay in the future, only the future me will know.

The only ones who should kill, are those prepared to be killed.


OT:

I was already ready to die, I do not fear it.
