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.
Perhaps easier said than done. I'm not sure that anyone is truly prepared for it until it happens.
I've lost more people in my life than I would care to count, from all types of causes. Natural. Accidents. Suicide. Homicide. Warfare. I've watched people I care about take their last breath. I've been justifiably in jeopardy of losing my life twice - the first time, I was terrified, the most recent, I accepted whatever fate brought as the outcome was entirely out of my control.
(Despite the manner in which I faced that most recent situation, I can also say that after-the-fact, the experience has had a profound impact on my life. That was ten months ago tomorrow, and there are still aspects of the experience I am still processing. Things affect us in ways that we cannot always appreciate until we experience them.)
I couldn't say how it might be for you, but I can say for me - the experience is subjective and situational.
To answer your original question - I do not fear my own death. I'd rather focus on living during whatever time I have remaining.
