    It'll happen when its Time... not before, not after.

    In the meanwhile whatcha gonna do - Freakout?
    And that will accomplish what?

    Well, you are right. I'm still slightly afraid of death but I used to be like lynsey. I'm no longer like that because I realized there is no point to that and really all it can logically do is keep you from living fully while you are alive.

    You can't do anything to stop death so there is no point obsessing over it.

    I'm not exactly afraid of dyiing, but I do have fears how it will come about. I would much rather die peacefully in my sleep than get lined up and murdered execution style or something like that...it's the method or way that I am going to go that scares me. That's why I try not to think about it.

    wouldn't say i'm afraid of dying in the sense that i'm gonna be dead or the way i'll die. i'm more afraid of the time i'll miss if i'm gone tomorrow, so i live for the moment and try to enjoy every bit of it

    I'm more afraid of other people dying than me. I'm not afraid to die. If I die a painful death, I hope it's instant.. Torture or a long painful illness is whole different thing. That worries me a little when I think about that. I would try to will myself to die in that situation.

    I agree with you totally about being more afraid of other people's deaths then my own. I worry A LOT about the people I love.

    I would be different then you though- I think if I had an illness that would bring me a slow painful death, I'd will it away instead of willing myself to die.

    a little bit. there are so many things i'd like to live long enough to see. chainges i would like to see happen. i know no one of us is likely to ever live long enough to see all of them.

    as for other people dying, what the world i have to live in becomes like, and i mean tangably, not emotionaly, as a resault of their doing so, well that matters mostly in the context of how the kind of world i'm living in is forcing me to have to live now.

    if i've lived as many times as i believe myself to have, then i'm not a death vergin by any means. and i've done as much as i've come to expect myself to be able to, well pretty much, there arn't any absolutely vital projects of mine 'hanging fire' that need me to remain arround to look after them.

    but i AM in no big hurry to get myself dead either.

    I'm afraid for my husband and my kids if I die. What will they do? Where will they go? Who will raise them? I want to be the one to do it all. I'm not afraid of death when it's time, but hopefully it won't be my time for a loooooong looong while.

    On an interesting note, I had a dream last night that I got shot in the back the middle of my street holding a baby in my arms. It was very weird and very vivid. I can still feel the bullet going into my back and me falling on the street. Weird that I saw this post right after I had that.

    I'm more or less afraid of dying before I feel my life is fully done and being all angsty and pissed. Haha.

    When I think about how the dark will creep in and I won't be able to see....then my thoughts will....just...stop. Nothing more forever....




    Then yes.




    I am also afraid of being hacked apart with an axe...:D That would hurt a lot.

    Not really, no.
    What I'm afraid of is the world ending when I'm still alive. I don't want to see that crap hahaha.
    It's already starting too :S
