So What If We All Die

[nailit]

whats the big issue?
Everyone running around, washing their hands like theres no tomorrow and disinfecting everything in sight.
The ONLY death that you will ever experience is your own. Yes, you will experience the heartache of anothers death but the *actual* dying that you you will only experience is your own demise.
And we all have to die, everything must pass.
Whats the big issue if all humans die? I dont get it? Why are humans so important to this planet? In years to come the entire planet will die...
Whether I (or we) die tomorrow or in a million years, wont make a scrap of difference.

I love life but better be prepared (and accept) that its finite...
(And doesnt discriminate who lives longest)
Dont be scared of dying. It will happen to us all.

A man after my own heart!

I've never been scared of dying. I see death as 'nothingness' and I can't see how it's possible to be scared of 'nothing'.

I have no concept of grief either. I've never grieved for anyone and I know that I never will, so other people dying isn't going to bother me too much.

All the same though, I'm not too keen on the thought of the suffering that I might experience before my death.

Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to Die.

Aren't you cheery. I think this belongs any where...but not chatterbank.
That's just my opinion of course, but I'd really like to be able to escape all the gloom and doom in at least ONE category.

Sorry, couldnt find a 'Happy' cat this evening.
Must have been taken down or something!
(couldnt find a philosophey thread even...)

[rowanwitch]

No it's a positive thing... If you accept you will die nothing else is scary....
So you feel more clearly that the life you have is for living, loving, doing....

[pastafreak]

I think it's time for another quick walk with the dog. This thread has sent me back in the dumps...sorry.

[nailit]

Have I said something wrong?

[nailit]

//I think it's time for another quick walk with the dog//
What do you mean ''ANOTHER''?
Youve already had your quota?

[Ellipsis]

Struggling to find your purpose in life, nailit? Or found it and realised it's done?

[choux]

nailit, I imagine most of us are all too aware of our own mortality right now. Your post does not reflect the agonising death people face from Covid19 - gasping for their last breath.
You had to post it in Chatterbank ...
