Actually I use to. However, after traveling to different parts of the globe my mind kind of embraced the idea that even if there is not an afterlife, that the only way I could live on is by leaving some type of legacy. After changing my point of view I began worrying about what I'm doing to get the most out of life while it lasts, LOL!

Yes, and trying to understand more about it.I believe when you understand a certain concept you become somewhat a bit fearless.Obviously no one can say " I do not fear death 100% "Because we don't know for sure what's ever going to happen and I think that's why I fear it so much the curiosity of what exactly happens, or if anything happens at all.It's the confusion of not having accurate answers that leads me to the fear of it.

I firmly believe in an afterlife - and believe that the end of life as we know it is inevitable - but I believe God has made a better place for us in the afterlife.
I am nervous about the end of this life as I hope that my deeds have earned me a place with Him.

Of course. Most people fear the unknown and death is an unknown regardless of belief in an afterlife. I'm curious but still a bit scared of it. We all are to a certain extent. I guarantee it.

I worry it, as a results of fact whether I had an afterlife past to me, will my memory and the legacy I pass away in the back of exist after my dying, and if so, for the way long? i don't worry my mortal dying, it truly is inevitable. I in basic terms worry that background and time will swallow me up and each trial and tribulation in my existence i've got worked by using will volume to jack squat as a results of fact the universe will pass on as though not something had ever occurred. And that scares me.

No! I have been near death a number of times from a serious illness and it seems to be just like going to sleep. You will never know the difference because there is nothing on the other side of death.

Not as a human inevitability. Calling it a human inevitability would mean holding myself responsible for it. I do fear it as an action coming from an outer environment.

love the notion of reincarnation. ...so to some death isn't that fearful, especially if it's a natural painless one. no strangulation, homicidal, etc.
it's a cycle of life: being born, aged, sickness, and death. if every one is healthy and lives forever, and keeps procreating, ....pretty much boring and no way this earth be able to sustain the human race...some die to give way for the others. the point is whether we contribute something during our life here to society, and make something of ourselves during our short life span.

I don't fear death but I recognize it as inevitable.

it is my greatest fear. It has never been proven what happends after you pass away. I believe in the soul , and i believe that after you die your soul goes to heaven. However, who is to say our beliefs here on earth amount to anything after we die? That is what scares me the most. Do you stay in your pine box for all eternity just lying there, or do you float into space??
