this didn't really fit under any other category, so i guess this should be it.
ever think about it? maybe i'm being a pessimist, but i first thought of it in actuality was when i was eight. i ended up crying myself to sleep. it was just so overwhelming since you wouldn't know what would happen to you. some may be religious and say that you'd go to heaven/hell depending on whether or not you've 'repented.' nonetheless, i sort of hope for some hardcore facts to believe in. i know it's hard to think about this and maybe it'd be something that'd bring you down. death. in the atheist's point of view, you're merely nothing. nonexistent. you don't have a perspective, personality, or...rather, just absolutely nothing. i try not to think about this too much, but it came into mind again last night and it kept me up for a bit. this idea's just so hard to answer. i'd like to know what you think. |

I think this belongs in the Lounge and I may move it later... I'll wait to see if there's any chance this will escalate into a debate.
Death is finality. Those who believe in an afterlife may disagree, but realize that I mean death is final to the life you know. In that, there is nothing to much to think about. I used to ponder death and feared it. Then I realize, why fear the inevitable, the unchangeable. Why not prepare to face it instead, by living a life worth while. You know, to love and be loved and all that jazz. Eh, I don't really fear death, I fear pain. |
