Being dead is not scary in the least. Dying itself is not something anybody relishes, but it's just part of the life cycle, you have to accept you will die. It's not pleasant, but then it's not really pleasant for believers either.

The thought of leaving loved ones behind, plans unfinished and the tremendous waste that is death, is of course the worst aspect of it, but, I should never hope to live to a time where I didn't have loved ones to leave behind, or plans to finish. I think if you arrive at a point in your life where you can think, "I'm done", it'd be a terrible shame.

You see knowing that I only have one life, and that the only way I can transcend death is what I do in the here and now that will live on in peoples memories, gives tremendous purpose to my life. Much more so than living under the watchful eye of an unattainable, judgmental big brother in the sky.

This is a great relief. Embrace it and stop wasting your life!


That was pretty deep. Don't know how to respond.


Of course you don't know how to respond! you believe in islamic twaddle.ROFLOL
