Do you think about your own death often?

Doesn't work for me. I just want to be this me, and want my memories and future ones.

What if when you die you just constantly relive your life? Or when you die you just are visited by the greatest happenings of your life?
 
That would mean you'd have to believe in a possibility that there is more than the body. Like the soul exists and continues past losing the human shell. Hmm... That seems so out there.

So out there that countless billions of people have believe that over time?

Considering how little we know about dimensions - not to mention many, many other scientific phenomenon - it really isn't. I mean, would you have believed time was a dimension before Einstein?
 
"The educated mind rules out nothing."

Someone smart said that. If no one can remember who it was, it was me.

Yet so many blow off the idea of a creator. :huh:
 
very often... it haunts me in my dreams when I dream of nuclear holocausts.
 
Yays. :dew:
Exactly. It's not like I'm even saying it's definitely going to happen. I'm just saying it's a possibility. The unknown is known as the uknown for a reason; because it's unknown.

I'm all for people having individual beliefs. But I get so confused by people who say "I know this crazy thing is true! I have zero proof but I'm so sure!" and that's fine and dandy, but as soon as you bring up the idea of GOD they go "that's ****ing stupid!" Yet, there earlier belief is just as likely as the idea of GOD...Its so close-minded.
 
even though I dream and think of it, I'm not afraid of it.
 
I fantasize about going out in a blaze of glory sacrficing myself to save mankind, and having my final words go down in history as a great message of peace.

Then ofcourse you realize the harsh reality of it all, that the day you die will be just another day in the world. No one outside of your faimly and friends will care, and your legacy shall be the same as every other average joe.
 
The thought of suicide goes through my head daily.q
 
I tend to think that death isn't as inevitable as everyone seems to think it is, and I personally plan on at least trying to live forever. However, I do tend to sometimes worry about the possibility since I am a tad paranoid.
 
I think about death a lot, but not so much my own. Not yet, anyway.

What troubles me is when I think of my mom or dad (both are getting up in years) and how I'll deal with losing them. And it scares me because I don't think I'll handle it very well. We're all a pretty close family and in some ways they're my best friends...and I'm not a person who deals with grief well. So that's definitely a concern for me.

As far as my own demise...I dunno. I've had a few brushes with death (came within a hair of getting run over by a semi once, and life really DOES flash before your eyes, just like they say) but to me the scariest part of dying would be the moments leading up to it...when you realize you ARE critically injured and you ARE ACTUALLY/REALLY gonna die and the thought of that reality setting in....yeah, it's somewhat unpleasant.

Concerning the Great Beyond: I dunno. No one knows. I have my faith in God, many people don't. It does give me some comfort but when you think about it anything could happen. Hell, we could all be characters in some alien-written novel, for all we know. I believe there is an afterlife (and hopefully a pleasant one) and to me the thought of simply "ceasing to be" is pretty unsettling.

This thread gives me the shivers, and not in a good way.
 
We see threads about other people's death a lot. But it's a reality for our own existance. None of us live forever. Do you take into account that you will die, and cease to exist one day?

How often does that reality affect you?

Just curious.

It crosses my mind quite a bit actually :o

Maybe the thought increases when you hit your 20's I dunno.

This thread reeks of recient purchases from Hot Topic and a simple plan album being played in the back ground.
