Are you scared to die?

[marieelissa]

If so, what exactly are you scared of?

The pain, what happens after, the way you will die?

At times , yes, I think that we all are, the unknown is always a little scary, but I believe it is here that faith comes in and we continue to step forward, and continue our journey home to our Father who created us so that we may be with Him

I am not scared to die. It's more the how I go out. I can't swim so that would suck having a long drawn out death but otherwise I am very content with dying. When I had my son there was always that lingering question what if something goes wrong and they had to chose and my family knew it would be him over me. Even though I am only in my mid twenties I can say I've lived a pretty good life, who knows the future may be even better but if the time came I'm ready.

of the unknown and faith.

Afraid to die, huh? Nope, I don't think I am, much.

Ever look at a coin? You do realize there are two sides to it, right? Well, I went on for years in my teens being heavily involved with my baptist religion. Heck, I even committed my life to becoming a preacher at one point. Went to college and everything, though I never completed the task. All the while being involved in my religion you couldn't avoid the topic of death. We are all going to die, that's a given. Unless you're one of the couple people who cheated death and were raised up into the clouds, or wherever they went. So, that's a certainty, as far as I'm concerned.

But religion tends to focus on the hereafter, and what's happening now is of little concern. We're not encouraged to live LIFE (that's the other side of the coin). It's as if to say Life is just a segway to get to death. Life means nothing. Living ought not to be enjoyed, because our death is more important, and what happens thereafter. On the other hand, you have people that believe we only live once, so Party-On-Dude! And finally, you got people who live One Day At A Time.

I'm more or less into the latter group. While I'll proclaim I'm a born-again christian, and my salvation is secure in Jesus Christ, and I expect to go to heaven when I die, and my fear of death is no more because of that - I cannot help but wonder, "what if I'm wrong?" Maybe my faith isn't strong enough all the time, maybe.

But I refuse to ignore the fact that my God gave me LIFE first, not death. And in my living I want to be a blessing to people. I want a chance to LIVE first. I can't do anything about DEATH, it's gonna come one way or another. And unlike the constant preaching about death you get from religions, I refuse to devote my life to worrying about something I cannot change.

And you know what? Even more so than the comfort I get from knowing I'm saved, and going to heaven, I feel more comfort knowing I do not have to worry about death. That life goes on, and it's for such a very short time when you compare it to an eternity. Take care of business. Buy your ticket to heaven, and then get about LIVING. That's my philosophy, poorly explained I'm sure. hehe.

yessssss,I'm so scared to die

[manicamarketing]

I don't believe that I am scared to die.  I believe that I am scared to die the wrong way.

[freepcmoney]

I AM NOT GOING TO DIE !! I am an eternal spiritual being living in this body made of clay. This body might die, BUT I WON'T. The pain that this body might suffer before and during its death bothers me. I have already suffered years of physical and emotional pain, but today I am pain FREE. Hallelujah!!

[lgemini]

I am not scare of dying.  I hope I die when my kids are adults.  It is harder for a child to lose their parents at a young age.   

[evilpixiemagic]

not scared to die, but afraid i wont be there for my kids when they still need me so much.

[sarabtrayior]

No, everybody is going to die, we just don't know when so I have to say I'm not ready to die at this point in my life...

[batman33]

I'm not afraid of death itself, but I am curious about what happens after. I've been raised believing in heaven and hell, however, a person's naturally curiosity takes over after awhile. I'm not saying that I don't believe in the bible and what I've been taught, but I also have a mind of my own and I fully intend to use it everyday. I just keep my faith in God and hope that what I've been taught is true and that when my time comes, I'll make it to heaven and will be able to see God and my lost family and friends again someday.
