Are you afraid of dying?

If you are: why?

I believe fear of death is partly based on the false premonition that death is somehow a state of being. It’s not.
After the point of your death, you cease to exist. That does not mean floating around in darkness. It doesn't mean being nothing.
It means eternal nothingness of no non-existence. Nothing.

In other words, nothing to worry about.

My only fear involving death is of pain or horror surrounding death.
Like if you told me I'd died quietly in my sleep tonight. Well ok. I wish you'd told me yesterday so I could say bye to some freinds with out having to call and wake them, but other wise, ok. But if I woke up in bed tonight to find you standing at the foot of my bed weilding a chainsaw... NOT COOL. >:( Jerk.
