I have my own beliefs (lets not get into a religious debate here please), but the thought still frightens me out of my mind. So, does anyone else think of how it will be when we die, and are you afraid of it?
I stress again, please no religious posts, because they all lead to arguments, and hurt feelings. Thank you!
It's scary because it's an event with an unknown outcome. Having faith in a religion gives you the reinforcement that maybe death isn't the unknown that we perceive it to be. I was raised Catholic as well, but the fact is that regardless of your beliefs, death is a true unknown. We just choose to believe something about it.
Take comfort in the fact that we all have to do it and it's just a phase of our lives. After you've absorbed that, then turn it into a life challenge to outlive everyone else before you die.
