How do you feel about death?

Question

How do you feel about death?
Do you ever think about it seriously and do you think its foolish not do so?

Answer

Hope for the best, but plan for the worst. A good aphorism to live by.brbrThe first part means not stressing out about it. Everyone will be happy to tell you all kind of things about death. How it happens. When and how it will happen to you. But its all a crock. Nobody REALLY knows. Nobody can even really say it will happen to you. Maybe, as you say, the fountain of youth will be discovered tomorrow. If the future were certain, thered be no need to go there at all.brbrThat reduces death to just a dark room. Its something and we dont know what it is. Children might fear monsters in a dark room, but were not children. We can think about the things that might be there, and we can prepare ourselves for any dark room by just learning about our selves, experiencing new things, and sampling the large variety of welllit rooms that are available to us. It is people who are ready for a challenge of any kind who have the least to fear from death.brbrSpeaking for myself, I see so many welllit rooms around me, that Id have no problem exploring them all for centuries and maybe even millennia if the opportunity is afforded to me. Perhaps there are wonders even greater in that dark room... but there are so many wonders here that I see no reason to rush at all.

Once, where I worked, there was a woman who seemed to just hate me, and I had no idea why. But, we drew names for Christmas and I drew hers. Id sneak little secret Santa presents into her office nearly every day, hoping that the surprise would reach her heart. There was the big revelation and she was shocked, came over and hugged me as she thanked me for making her days brighter. We were never close friends, but there was no more bitterness between us.brbrI hope you can get it worked out.br.
