Death no one gets out alive

[Alpha]

All to often 'life' gets in the way, wet don't get the chance to catch up with friends and family as we should.

Regret can be a hard thing. My partners mum past away a few years ago and we were planning to visit that very weekend, hadn't for quite a while. To this day I know she regrets not visiting more often.

It's not her fault, just the prison that life for the working class has become.

Muhammad PBU. said "you should live in this world as if you are already dead"

so that's how I live and that's how I do all this silly shoot-from-the-hip stuff without fear of consequences

[Spicoli]

Always had a hard time believing a person just 'ends'. Know what I mean. The mind heart and soul of an individual cannot simply be tethered to heartbeat. Death observed has to be a factor in how we perceive it upon ourselves? The eventuality of it and randomness can mess with you overthinking it. A 10 year old dies of cancer and a 90 year old dies when some drunk crosses into oncoming traffic. That's just messed up.

I am scared

[Gandalf]

I am scared

Don't be scared. Listen to good song, listen to someone interesting, write a poem. You have nothing to fear.

As long is death is like falling asleep I do not fear it. I have an impossible time falling asleep so I don't think it is going to happen for a while. But when it comes it will be relief. Like a lullaby.

[Gandalf]

The worst part is likely the prelude to dying, but the dying itself, I don't think that is to be feared. Life itself is the suffering and if you can handle that, then what is death? It's an end to the suffering.

It’s not that I’m scared of death, I’d just rather not be there when it happens

Random or programmed

When I was a kid I was hit by a drunk driver as I rode my bike. I went head first through his car windsheild broke all kinds of shit and lost most of my blood as I lay unconcois on the street. Anyway I had to be revived with the paddles. I had a near death experience that involved white lights and a voice telling me I could stay if I wanted to. It was very intense but I am not sure if it was an NDE or some kind of dream or my neurons firing strange cause I was knocked out. Damn ive only told a few people that. It was a very memorable calming experience that I don’t know what it really was. I still think of it on occasion

[walrus]

By the way, that is a 100% true story

By the way, that is a 100% true story

Until you said that I am sure nobody doubted you

When I was a kid my mate got hit by an oncoming doubledecker bus after tripping off the pavement, just happened to be closest to the road, he spent a while in hospital, had his leg chopped off then inevitably the machine turned off.

I still think of it on occasion. Funny old world.

When I was a kid my friend got hit by a satellite that came hurtling out of the stratosphere while we were playing stickball. The satellite was so radioactive that it's simply cooked him right there while he was on the pitcher's mound. I didn't even get a chance to swing the bat.

If it just ends then it just ends...what is a person going to do about it?

If it doesn't just end then it doesn't just end....what is a person to do about it?


All we can do is live the lives we are blessed to live today

[Gandalf]

I agree with Brock. You have to accept the melancholy and there is nothing wrong or morbid and natural about it. It is genuine and real. To pretend all is fine and dandy is just self deception.
