    Does anyone actually believe that they are going to die?

    Although we all know that its true, I think that secretly no-one really believes its going to happen to them.

    Its just like trying to imagine yourself 20 years from now.

    At some point you know youre going to die. I know alot of old people who say they just want to die. They get so old life begins to suck I guess. I will agree with you at a point in life I think everyone knows theyre going to die but almost secretly deny the fact. Im like that :(

    i definately believe that people deny the death factor, but i think that when u can see it and u do except it then i think u do one of two things u either just stop having fun because, u start to think whats it all for? or u start having more fun because u know you dont have much time.

    That is a great point! i suppose some people are forced to face their mortality due to illness. Some people then take the holiday they always wanted but could never really afford.


    I try to live with more awareness that it will all be over one day but it can be hard not to take it all for granted, and like you say, it can cause a bit of depression.

    I'm actually excited to experience death. It'd be the greatest experience ever, Hopfully it'll be at the ripe old age of like 90 or something, but I'm pretty curious to see what happens.

    I think about it and i know it, but i always forget. I always think about it if i can't get any sleep. I really wish i did'nt know it. People are lucky not to know it, not knowing it is king.

    The thought of impending doom is what makes me want to make everyday exciting. It motivates me to work hard now, so I can f off sooner....before I'm old and dying.
