I was very, very young. Honestly, I was never anywhere near as troubled by the idea of death as I was by the idea of Hell. Legit kept me up at night as a youngin.

@BlueVeins Exactly. I believed that you burn forever. It’s terrifying.

@MrMonnyPenny When I ditched religion, the whole no afterlife thing was kind of a relief for me.

@BlueVeins I’ve accepted it now - it’s about making a positive impact during your life and seeing how far the ripples go on for after you’ve gone.

Like king Alfred said, “it’s always been my wish to live honourably and after my death to leave to those who come after my memory in good works”
My grandma passed when I was in 3rd grade. I learned then that I do not deal with death well (composure-wise). Fast forward to when the rest of my grandparents passed and I still do not deal with it as well as most. I choke up, can’t speak and refuse to cry so this awkward noise comes out that’s a cross between clearing my throat and suffocating.

Been a long while. At first it affected me, now death even in the family doesn't get a twinge of emotion out of me.

Not sure. I don't remember the time I didn't know about it.

I found out about death from a death experience, not a near-death experience, I mean the real thing. I was totally okay with death after-the-fact because I realized at the time that we cannot actually die. Our bodies appear to die but we are not our body. In fact, our body doesn't die either. It doesn't die because it was never alive in the first place. Only our Spirit Energy which surrounds our body is alive, which means that our identity is our Spirit Energy, not our physical body. And of course, Spirit Energy cannot die. Therefore, there is no such thing as actual death. There is 'transition' to higher levels of learning, but there is no death... meaning no 'finale' to life on earth.[/c]
