Are you sad that you're going to eventually die?

[Popadoo]

I'm scared of dying if it's a boring death in a bed surround by the ones I love. When I get past 65, I'm going to start doing extreme sports every week until one goes wrong! Hopefully it will involve an explosion...

 

[Death_Korps_Kommissar]

I'm not scared.
Just wish I had more than eighty measly years to spend alive.

 

[Danish rage]

Nahh, Nobody ever really dies. My genes are immortal, as long as my sons continue the family.

 

[TehBooger]

I'm not worried about dying, I'd just rather not have it be particularly painful. Of course if I'm part of some insanely awesome situation, being a hero or some such, I wouldn't have so much of a problem with the pain.

 

[Dead_Man]

If I lived a full and happy life, then I would have no concerns about it. But I would love to see how the human race would progress after my lifetime.

 

[Rhaff]

Quite the contrary, i embrace it, as long as the method and time could be of my choosing. I do however, if given the opportunity, want to be absoulutely immortal, just to see how everything evolves and ends

 

[Wondermint13]

I'm kinda hoping my death atleast would be somewhat decent. Otherwise all the worrying and waiting wouldn't have been worth it really.

 

[luclin92]

nah im more glad that i eventually is going to die since i think immortality can become realy boring in the long run.

 

[Fraught]

No.

I've accepted it, I know it's pointless to waste life by worrying about it, I know that when I die, I won't go to heaven or hell, but I'll just cease to be, my consciousness non-existent, and the prospect of that doesn't scare me at all, and it's still such a long ways off (and no, I don't think from an "astronomical viewpoint" or some bullshit about "eternity in heaven", I think of the remainder of my life as a long time (even if I wish it could be a LOT longer)).

 

[suitepee7]

as many have said, i am not afraid to die. i can't do anything about it, apart from make sure when the time comes, i have no regrets.

 

[Phoenix09215]

Its not death itself that scares me, its not knowing when it will happen. The idea of me one day going to sleep and never waking up scares me because it doesn't give me a chance to say goodbye to what I had.

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

Not nearly as sad as I am that I'm eventually going to get old unless I die young.

 

[Howlingwolf214]

Not really. At least, at the end, I'll finally get an answer to the question that is likely to bug me my entire life: Is there an afterlife?

Hey, maybe I'll be able to tell you the answer one day.

 

[benoitowns]

I don't like it, but I am not really that sad about it.

 

[TangoOneSix]

Meh, if anything, I'm sadder by the fact I'm going to die before I get to see humanity do really great things - accomplish interstellar travel, make contact with alien civilizations, etc.

Do I fear death? Sure I do, I'm human. But I also accept its inevitability and hope that it comes either quickly in the line of duty (and in an honorable fashion), or peacefully in a few decades with no more regrets.

 

[Jeffster92]

Death is as meaningless as life. I'd give the circle of life speech, but I'm not that sentimental. Basically, my death won't mean anything in the end, so why worry about it?

 

[hannan4mitch]

Eh, we all die. Even Death (HP Lovecraft reference FTW)
It's just a fact of being alive in the first place.

 

[Erja_Perttu]

Thinking about Death scares the hell out of me. I can't bear the thought of not existing or being a conscious entity. To be nothing is terrifying.

Totally this. One the one hand I've given it enough though to know that dying is natural and inevitable and not worth worrying about.

On the other hand fuck! Even thinking about it makes me physically sick. Knowing something and accepting something are two totally different things and I can only hope that by the time someone taps me on the shoulder and says it's time to go that I'll be okay with it.
