I do not fear death, yet I do enjoy life, is this some type of contradiction or do these two states go together naturally?

You have a wise, boundless eternal mindset and it is beautiful. You have mastered the ebb and flow of life. Neither am I afraid to die, and I truly love life. I think I am this way because I have all my trust in the grand scheme of things, the passage of time over many millennia and the truths found in my faith. Let's live!!! YAY!!!

Congratulations! I think you should join the Military! No...all jokes aside, I think that`s great! I do fear Death, because I don`t want to leave my Loved Ones and don`t want my kids to grow up without me. That is my main reason. Sure I think you can have both, you may be even more daring if you think you have nothing to lose, you might take more risks in life, because if Death does not scare you, what would? That`s how I see it.

It's actually really good. You can live your life to the fullest and know you have lived life, and not be afraid to die. People shouldn't fear death, they should fear the unlived life. So you have the right perception of life and death!

I don't fear death so much as I fear judgement day. As for life, it is more than healthy to enjoy life, it is a real blessing, so long as your "living righteously".

It seems to go just fine for me. I know death is inevitable, and i suppose accepting that can make you appreciate the time you have, without wasting any of it on worrying about dying, or life after death, etc. It is going to happen, there is no way of knowing when or how or what happens after, don't tax yourself with it.

I don't fear death, because I know I will see God some day, but god gave me this body for the time being. So it is up to me to take care of the body he has gave me, because life is a gift.

I guess so I'm not sure. I try not to think about death. It comes when it come's and you just have to be prepared , but enjoy life why you have it.
