Which is that life is very fragile. You're here today, and you're gone the next day. We don't think about death often because we're so busy in our lives, but it's around the corner for everyone. Nobody is safe from it.

That's why we should enjoy our lives as much as we can. I won't throw in my 2 cents on what happens when you die, but I'm pretty sure I covered it well, and what I believe actually happens is the truth, a truth that no one wants to know. A truth that's very depressing to think about, hence I don't think about it, I just accept it.

I'm not afraid to die, because I know eventually I'm going to die. What I'm really afraid of is how I'm going to live my life, so when that day comes I won't say "Wait, That's it?." Though there is a chance that I may never say that and just die tomorrow, or the next day. That's the thing with how reality works.

People can die at anytime and any place, you could live a long life, and then just die. You could die in your sleep, you could get killed by someone with a gun or a knife and bleed to death, you can die from a sickness, you could even die by choosing to end it all early by killing yourself, and at the end of it there is no undo from dying.

Death is death.

So live as much as you can is what I say, and of course, everyone does die eventually. Everyone you know is eventually going to be gone to. I'm going to die, you're going to die, family is going to die, hell my cat's been dead for a year now and there isn't one day where I don't miss him.

So again, live life as much as you can, because the way I see it you only get one chance to get things right in this world. We forget that our time on this earth is limited, sometimes we believe that we are invincible to everything, but sadly that isn't the case.

Believe me I wish immortality were possible, but everything that's on this earth is designed to eventually wear out and break down, including us.

Now get up and look for something positive to look forward to today, because why the hell wouldn't you after reading this thread?  :P

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
My eyes burn.

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

What do you mean die in your sleep

There are cases where you just go to bed one day and you never wake up.

Like say...

I got to bed tonight and my heart just stops beating or I stop breathing during my sleep, or heck a bad earthquake happens and I'm really asleep unaware of it and the ceiling comes down crushing me in full force killing me like a squashed bug.

You're lying (whether you realize it or not), but I agree with your sentiment.

But now the real question is, do you wake up dead?

You mean waking up after sleeping and then a split second later you die?

No, I mean wake up dead. The debate of the millennium. How do you not know?

I've been exposed to a lot of death in my family that the fear is pretty much drawn out of me.

Now do I want to die? Right now? That's a no.

But if I live to be 70 and I'm in pain, fuck it. I'd be ready to go. I'm not afraid of dying, because I just don't stop and think about it every so often.

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.

It just seemed relevant to your message, Deci.

Then you're not dead are you?

The only way that a person is truly dead is when their neurons stop firing. That's another way to go btw, brain-dead.

Everything else in the body works except the brain's neurons stopped firing. So unless your neurons are going regardless, you're dead if they stopped firing.

I wasn't trying to make fun of Death in general.

I'm just saying we forget how fragile life really is and we should enjoy our lives as much as we can since we were given that chance to exist in the first place.

But do you wake up somewhere else, sometime later, alive?

I guess that depends in your beliefs.

Yeah, I'm afraid more so of how I will be remembered rather than how I died.

That's why I try to make people's lives in this world as enjoyable as I can, so I can leave a positive impact on their life and be remembered as a good person.

Do you wake up in a dream, do you die in your dream, how do you become aware you died?

Also, screwing with Deci is nothing to be ashamed of.

Never said you were. It just you have a similar mentality (although with a far more optimistic spin) to the priest.
