So far the ride has been great so I certainly have no desire for it to end, yet. Being dead does not scare me. Dieing on the other hand might be painful.

I once was nearly electrocuted. I was unable to get free for a long enough time that I was convinced that I was going to die. My last thought before I got loose was "I hope it doesn't take long". I was not afraid.

I don't fear anything that's not threatening me at the moment. Whether we call it fear or just an instinct for avoidance, if it was not built into us biologically, our species would not exist. I don't fear Mack Trucks, but curiously, every. single. time. one has headed straight for me, my stupid body has hopped out of its way. Not me, mind you; just my stupid chickenshit body.

Death is just non-existence. I didn't exist for billions of years before I was born and I have no complaints during all that time.

Don't remember dieing before and I'm open to new experiences

I have no fear of death or dying. There has been so much pain already, that the final pain will also not disturb me. My GS knows what to do- keep his hysterical mother (my daughter) away from me during my last minutes. I will slip away smiling while the jukebox in my brain plays the last song. that's the plan.

Death is like stupidity.Those afflicted are unaware of it but it's those round about that suffer.

When my time comes, I hope I'm walking across one of my fields and ZAP!!! A stray lightning bolts takes me out and leaves nothing but my ashes as fertilizer for the next crop!!

Although I do tend to try to avoid death, I don't think I actually fear death. Why worry or fear something that I know is inevitable? Fearing death will only inhibit my life experience, and because I only have the one shot at life, I want to enjoy it.

It is the how that troubles most people.

Dying but not death. It is one of the sad acts of religion that the mercy of planned death that we can give to suffering animals, is not available to humans. Who, thanks to dogma are forced to endure sometimes nearly endless suffering in the name of so called sacred life.

Fear or not, there is no work around it so, why bother?

The Human fear of death is the foundation of all religions.
