no why should I? They have spend their life as they wanted. And when they die they will make room for other generations.

So, like musical chairs crossed with russian roulette?

Death is most certainly beautiful. Just ask Dexter.

Mind if I ask if you've lost anyone close?

no,but when the time will come,it's better to be prepared. Even if you will shed 10000 tears it wont bring that person back,it's better to accept death for what it is and when it happens to just move on.

I don't fear them as in I'm afraid of them happening, but I do fear them as in I don't know what I would do if they did happen, if that makes sense. I've lost two friends at young ages, so I am under no delusion that my loved ones can't disappear tomorrow. I have, however, come to accept the losses that came with those deaths, and I think it's helped me gain a better perspective on my own.

The best way to deal with fears is to confront them, so I think if people simply tried to understand their death and what it means, the human race wouldn't be so afraid of the subject.
