I turn 40 in a month and have begun thinking about it more and more. My father died at 42. Yes, I am afraid. How cavalier of those who have no fear.

umoveme Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'm not at all afraid of dying, but sometimes I fear dying alone (without a "soul mate," husband etc...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umoveme Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 QUOTE (shail @ Sep 13 2011, 06:50 AM) Your soul left your dying body. That just sounds way loony. You said it was common in the 60 and 70's. What about thousands of years before and after for that matter. Did this god creature decide to start giving people a second chance during the heavy drug era? WTF. How can a creature who exists in a time that never ends intervene in our time. It's very impossible. It's just scary that lots of people on this planet believe in life after death and believe that there is this god person. Loonies! Are you 12?

I know a few people my age who are afraid of death. I know its not as common, but I didn't think age had anything to do with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LyndseyG Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Do I fear death? Right at this point? No. I know I'll be scared when it actually happens (accident/murder) or if I'm told I've got cancer or something though. Whenever i think about it mostly i feel sad. I believe in life after death and reincarnation. My mum once told me that my grandmother had a near death experience where she got near the light and was told to go back. IMO it's mostly the unknown that most people are afraid of. When? How? Pain? Fast or slow? Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janie Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) I'm not afraid at all. Besides, why be worried or scared of something that is inevitable? My only hope is that if my ending is a painful one because of cancer or something, I'm doped up enough to expire while being higher than a kite on killer morphine or something.

Janie Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 QUOTE (Mara @ Sep 9 2011, 11:15 AM) I fear aging badly more than I do dying. I do not want to end up drooling and incontinent in a nursing home somewhere. Would never happen. You are a feisty broad.

Janie Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (tick @ Sep 9 2011, 03:49 PM) I think the result of this poll is not accurate. People can say one thing but if you were told you would die tomorrow, you would feel fear. Every last one of you. I may feel a twinge of fear but mostly I would feel sad for my two little ones. I think I would be scared of dying alone. That would scare me far more than my life ending. Edited September 15, 2011 by Janie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 One reason a person might fear dying (for those that believe in such things) is if they've done many wrong things in their past or maybe one terrible thing that they got away with but now feel guilty about. They might fear some kind of judgement to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shail Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Y'all seen the movie a little bit of heaven? Kate Hudson flick. It's all about dying. Very touching. Tear jerker. Really sad movie. Why not spoil it. Cancer flick. Well done movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
