Some say death is the final unknown, but as far as I know death is simply the termination of life; the end of the biological functions that sustain any given living organism, like you and me. I can only grasp my morality now for I am alive and able to, but I cannot hope to perceive the state of death once am I dead, when the bodily processes and brain functions stop it is the cessation of my consciousness as well. I won't be able to perceive or experience, well, anything more, including my life I'm living right now.

Maybe I'm being pessimistic here though I can't say death is sad anymore than I can say 'pre-life' is sad.
