I Like Country Living

The key word here is living. Why am I seeing all these questions about death and dying?

Life is for living and there is way too much life to live for people to be obsessed about death.

I don't understand why?

Todestrieb. The death drive. The antonym of the life drive, otherwise known as the sex drive. Freud thought it was a result of unactualized aggression towards society--aggression that could not be expressed--and so, turned inward. I tend to agree for the most part.

Depression has been said to be anger turned inward. Aggression directed inward develops into self-hate and self-destruction.

It has been shown that the brains of suicide and homicide victims is the same. The act of killing someone else and killing oneself is the same. Still murder, even if its yourself. Just a matter of where the gun is pointed. Self- destruction is just destruction.

Also, the desire of death is ultimately just experiencing so much emotional pain that the only way one knows how to escape it is through death.

At least they think it's through death but no one knows for sure.

It makes sense to me that teaching separation, i.e. churches and other organizations, and lack of proper diet will and do cause the negative thinking.

A lack of knowledge about the body, mind and life cause the wrong minded thinking.
