Anyway, the more I think about it, the less worried I get. It's going to happen to me and anybody reading this topic


It is the absolutely inescapable, 100% certainty that every single person will have to face at some point sooner or later. Every single man, woman and child alive or yet unborn -- everyone you know, have ever known, or will ever know, will join ultimately that infinitely long line of humanity marching into eternal darkness. The relentless inevitability of it is depressing; on the other hand, you'll be joining the biggest club in the world.

I thought about death a lot after my parents died. I figured it's not healthy to dwell on it for too long. Just delay it for as long as you can and fill the time you have as well as you're able, so at least you'll carry fewer regrets with you as you bump about in the box on the way to the cemetery. That's the best you can hope for.
