Are you more afraid of living, than you are of dying?
Strap your boots on, because living is a fun adventure. Sure, of course it's really tough at times. Really tough. It's in those moments that you decide, and show, who you are.

What do you mean? Because the thought of dying terrifies me. Not only that but the thought that everybody in history has died and will die. I wonder what comes after.
I've made posts on here and then deleted them because I was afraid no one would understand why I'm wondering every single day with full intention where we go after death. I'm wondering because I still feel every ounce of pain I've ever witnessed and I pray to whatever higher power may be out there that these poor people are in a better place now because nobody deserves to experience what they did. I wouldn't wish it on anybody.
But everybody will go through it to some degree. Maybe not the same circumstances or the same suffering. But death. Everybody will end up where they ended up.
So I just pray.
The only thing separating me from finding out where those people are now, is life. Once my life is taken away, once anyone's life is taken away, we may get the answer we were looking for. And we may not like it.
That terrifies me more than anything. Anything at all.

@SinlessOnslaught I quite appreciate your response. There are so, so many that are terrified of living, that it paralysis them, and that's a terrible way to live. Rationalize the situation: and plan a way to make it better. That's what I did. And life has still been up, way up; and way down, along the way.
The adventure is still there though

@come2gether I appreciate your input, too. Maybe the fear of living can often manifest as or appear to be the fear of death.
Either way, what you did is sound advice to follow.

@SinlessOnslaught the only fear I have in death is coming back reincarnated.

@BalladOfADeadSoulja Why specifically that?

@BalladOfADeadSoulja then you have nothing to fear. You're quite in luck!
