are you afraid of death?

Expensive to live expensive when you die.



Im a christian but live a life of sin. So i am scared if death cuz i domt wana go to hell.
 
No, if its my time its my time. Wasting life in mediocrity without noticing it fly by is a pretty scary thought though.
 
More afraid about the death of the people close to me than my own, but yes.
 
Very afraid tbh. No one truly knows whats next after life. Is it Heaven or Hell ? Or do you just rot in the ground ? :frown:
 
I thought I was afraid of people I love dying but a few close relatives have passed in the last 7 or so years (one being my grandmother that I've lived with for my entire life up until that point back in '07 and another being my favorite older cousin back in 2012) and I always immediately just find myself in a somber, yet understanding place about it. It's just part of the cycle of life, and if I can recall notable memories made with them then I just make sure to hold on to those.

As for death for myself, not at all. But that's easy to say when I don't have a reason to feel like my life is at its end. So more accurately, I don't fear the many uncertainties that surround death but I know that unless I die in my sleep or something, I'll probably be scared ****less as I'm dying.

Nah, not afraid of dying. I just know that the absolute last way I would want to go out would be at the hands of punka$* cancer man :smh:
 
I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of not trying,
everyday, hit every wave like I'm Hawaiian...
 
nope. kinda motivates me to make sure my time on this planet is actually worth something

but i am afraid of death without doing the things i want to do

starting a family, traveling the world
 
It's funny because my crew and i were talking about this during the summer

We were all just a bit scared flying, and death of course.

But when we're on the fire line, where anything can possibly go wrong, none of us have the fear of death.
 
Death isn't immediate, that's why I'm not afraid.

Just like a younger smoker isn't afraid of lung cancer, it isn't immediate.
 
I definitely agree with you. I can't stand bearing pain and living life suffering.
 
I don't believe there is a rational, sane human being who is not scared to die. If the grim reaper came up to you and said "this is where your life ends" I can guarantee you would crap your pants and beg for your life because in some way everybody knows this one shot to be on this Earth is all there is. Fear of death is what makes you look both ways before crossing the street, it's what keeps cancer patients fighting for a chance to continue living, it's what tells police/military to wear flaks and carry firearms. If you truly do not fear death then I challenge you to live without regard for your safety, health, or general well being and see how far you make it. Being scared of dying is what let's me know I'm not crazy.
 
No, I have no fear of death. Death is guaranteed so why fear something that is inevitable. I feel empowered because I don't fear death

"Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds And Shall Find Me Unafraid"

the stanza that made me realize that I have nothing to fear at all, it was just a weakness holding me back, so I disregarded it and became stronger.

And if I'm crazy for not being afraid...oh well, Id rather be crazy and fearless
