Fear of death

[Ace Otana]

I'm getting older and do not feel like that kind of excitement anymore, if I were to ride a bike now I probably would drive right into death's door.

Can't live life in bubble rap. Life is about how well you live it, not living in fear of the end and in hope of another life (that may never come). You gotta live on the assumption that there is no other life. That this life is all you've got.
I like to ride my push bike up to 30mph along the cycle track and often without a helmet and yet I don't believe in any afterlife and have accepted that if I hit anything, I may never wake up. But life really is one big ride but like all rides, it has an end. It has it's ups and downs and many people perceive it in many ways. Some can't see life as anything without belief in god, while many of those who lack such beliefs have no trouble finding beauty and meaning in life.

Didn't think theists should worry about dying. You think you're going to heaven after all. I don't believe in any afterlife and yet being dead is not so frightening. Probably because I won't be aware that I'm dead or even existed for that matter.
