Death-- you ever feel scared of it?

Not like a phobia.. but yeah, sometimes I have thought a little too hard about it and been quite scared.

I guess maybe I shouldn't be scared, but sometimes I am. D:

From the moment we are born we are dying
We are just in a life cycle for aprox 70 years thats the standard human lifespan, going past 70 is a bonus. I'm now 28 so at least 42 years of standard life left, but I'll expect to die when I'm at least 85 or so, thats about 57 years, but I could live till 100+ due to the advances of medical technology, by the time I'm reached that age, they might have found a way to reverse the bodys aging process.

Whatever time you have on earth dont waste the years away, get some love and good job and social social dont isolate yourself.

But God already have this since the start of time, hes the utimate "fountain of youth" he can change our bodies to mortal to immortal, he has medical technology way way ahead of the medical technology of man.

danandlouie, you're very welcome. And no, I did not know what a 'bait' dog was, and doesn't sound very sporting on the part of these so-called dog fighters. bullies and little boys is what they are.

and yeah, I kind of see what you mean about if you were going to get into serious pain medication you need people around who can take care of you. You know, I read Larry Flynnt's book 'An Unseemingly Man' and at one point, for the pain from his nerve damage, the doctors prescribed something called a 'Brompton Cocktail' (mix of opiate and cocaine). I think this was the doctors at UCLA, then after a while they decided they couldn't do it anymore. So, basically . . . it's real hard finding a doctor when you're hurting, esp since it's one out of twenty if that. And they're right, addiction is a bad thing, but chronic pain is a bad thing, too. And maybe some kind of balance between the two, and taking risks on behalf of your patient, in consultation with professional colleagues. I think that's what being a professional would be all about, and not being overly afraid of criticism.

You sound like a hec of a guy, sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you when I was in activism. it was kind of lonely, and it would have been very nice to meet someone else different like myself, even if we were different in different ways! These days most of my activism is writing.

And by the way, you write very well. Both keeping it real and connecting.

I'm worried about things I don't understand. Since I don't understand what happens at death it worries me.
