I tried to off myself once, so I consider anything beyond that bonus years. I'm ready to check out at any time. Sure, I'd like to live longer now that I have kids, so I can be there for them and see them grow up. But I have no fear about the reaper coming, and sometimes I even look forward to it. Peaceful oblivion appears quite tempting when compared to this reality sometimes.

Mental illness can be a pretty good cure for fear of death.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
