Do you ever lay awake at night, or when you're bored, and start thinking about death and wondering if their is life after death and then you get really scared if there isn't because you know you'll just be gone forever and never think or exist or anything? I can't put it into words, you'll know what I'm talking about if you have...

Yeah.... when I think about it I get scared... but then I tell myself
(i have to) that if there are books like the Bible, Qu'ran, and Torah that all focus on a single cause and all believe in one God/Muhammad/Abraham then there has to be some kind of afterlife. Weather it is something like a heaven or reincarnation, a form of afterlife HAS to exist. But if my long talk about the major three religions doesn't help.... you can try doing what I do when I'm scared. I tell myself... "I/we have nothing to fear but fear itself." It usually helps me.

I think death will be cool actually. My hope is that I can die at home and not hooked up to some machine. Who actually wants to live on this plane anyway? I think life on this planet is pathetic. Most of us are like dogs chasing their tails, have no direction and we have to make up stuff to make this life interesting. I mean really. No one ever experiences enoughness, we always want more or what ever and it never satisfies any way. I want out. Be here now, cause that is all we really have anyway.

Actually I lie awake at night in fear that those I love will die. I could care less if I die, but losing the people I love and living without them - that's tough.
And yes, there is life after death. I know this for certain. 'Course I'll never be able to prove it to anyone else, but that's not the point is it?

Yup, I'd thought about it for 2 years or so. Every night when I tried to sleep, the silence kept bothering me. I started thinking about afterlife, heaven, hell, god ...
But there's one thing that calms my heart. Six years ago, my father in law got food poisoning and he had to be treated in the intensive care unit. He had a coma for a day. When he woke up, he said that he felt like he was walking through a long hallway and on a corner of it, a door opened, and his parents were there, waiting for him.
So I guess there's an afterlife.

yes i know exactly what ur saying. death is my worst fear. i just cant imagin dying and never seeing anyone i love ever again. its not that im scared how i will die, if it will be painful or an easy passing. im jus scared of never waking up again. im scared nobody will remember me or that i ever even existed here. im just scared everone i love i will never be able to be with them again. sometimes i lay awake in my bed and cant fall asleep because of my fear. when you die, is that it? or is there really a judgment day? and say ur family made it to heavan but you didnt. do they mirn for you? and are they sad, or do they have no memory of u. i have a question simular to yours on my page. the whole thought of death, crushes me.

I think about death a lot. Sometimes I think that it will be better after death and other times I start crying because death is so sad.

Yes,i think of it often i miss grandma terribly.But i feel as though we have a fear of the unknown.We dont like what we do not understand or know.So we are unsure of how we feel about it.
We didnt know because we cant remember what birth is like.So,im thinking death may be one in the same.Just remember to give all the love you can while you are here..and know we are going to be in safer place .

Actually I do.
I wonder if you can hear your funeral?
I wonder if you can hear your family members talking to you before you pass away?
I wonder if all of God's children come together at the end of the world, and are sent back to live a life on Earth with no sin?
It's really weird, but I understand!
I totally do!

Nope! What scares me is the idea of being alive and in terrible pain! But all of us have done what you're talking about from time to time. As long as it doesn't become an obsession or interfere with your regular life, don't worry about it.

Absolutely not. By the Grace of God, I have a spot reserved in Heaven, so there is nothing to be afraid of. I just try to do as much good as I can on this Earth during my time here, however long that may be.
