What is your deepest fear?

I do. And anyone who say they don't- You will. I don't care what you think, you will.

I was unfortunate enough to watch my mother die of a terminal illness. Its brutal watching someone die and then realizing you're going to end up in the same situation, one way or another. I don't want to get sick and die. I don't want my daughter to see me waste away.
 
I don't fear death but I fear dying.

It's the dying part that I'm not looking forward to.
 
i dont fear death, but i pity the fool who goes through my shit and finds my porn folder
 
I really don't, more so curious to see what lies beyond. If anything I wouldn't want to die now because I have so many things I haven't done or experienced and I don't want to leave my loved ones with the pain of me passing.
 
I have been close to death and it is the worst feeling. It just sucks. And it proved to me that I will go out on my terms
 
"Crom is strong! If I die, I have to go before him, and he will ask me, 'What is the riddle of steel?' If I don't know it, he will cast me out of Valhalla and laugh at me."

None of you are ready.
 
I'd miss people I think unless there is no more missing. Who knows...
 
I don't fear death because I don't believe in anything after. I was raised Christian and was taught that when I die it's either Hell burning forever or In heaven at Gods feet 24/7 praising him. No lying down in clouds playing with puppies looking at beautiful female angels flying by, just straight bible heaven (The way it should be taught imo). I actually feared death then lol.
 
I don't and I've proven it over and over again. One of the things I'm more proud of about myself and my character. I've been put in many positions where I've had to accept that I'm probably going to die... I just embraced it and I think that's why I survived.

The worst about it is that it's like everyone else in your life is dying, really. Saying goodbye to all of them, but my own, individual death, by itself, is nothing to me.
 
I fear death, because It might be avoidable at some point thanks to science. I fear that I won't be alive by the time death gets cured.
 
The only thing I fear about death is the thought of dying before I get my trust fund.

See what fascinates me about this is that I get it. I get that your mind has more information in it than my mind. Sound or unsound information is irrelevant. I'm ok with that.

But then when researching someone like Carl Jung, and when you realise what type of man you are being taught by, someone who many think had the most information of all say's I am not crazy to think the way I do.

Who do I listen to in this situation? Hahaha
 
Heh, sorry Shayo, should've stated I wasn't referring to you, I was very drunk at the time :)

Still, good and relevant answer!

I couldn't agree more.

I've had to deal with the reality I may not live past the next few minutes more than a few times. One time in particular, there was no doubt in my mind I was probably out of luck. I remember many thoughts going through my head, but the only thing that was really in my mind was my loved ones. I clearly remember that moment... all I could think was., Damn... I'll never get to hug my parents and tell them how much I love them again. Then my thoughts went to the girl I'm in love with... And I realized that I'd never get to hold her and tell her exactly how much I loved her.

Obviously, I lived.

I got the chance to not only do all these things, but every chance I get, I hug my parents and they know. And even though we're not together and we're friends now, I make sure she knows how much she means to me... and when I was able, I let her know that she literally saved my life...

I totally agree about all of that. That's been exactly my experience.

Death has the ability to change who you are if you're lucky enough to survive it. Be the best you can be, don't be afraid of it and learn from it when it seeks to teach you.

There is no greater professor than that of the certainty that you may lose your life and the complete clarity you get from not doing so. Live every day as if it may be your last and you'll never have any regrets.

But here... and I feel like this is somehow 'wrong' or something - no near death experience has ever had any effect on me whatsoever besides maybe irritating me that I woke up alive. I never had any revelations or awakenings from almost dying... it's almost as if it doesn't carry any weight. I already valued those people, I already did those things, and I feel good about that, but it feels weird knowing that I haven't had any of those experiences... that it never touched me like that. I almost feel like I've missed out, lol. I've also never had any cool near death experiences where I saw something spiritual, I never had any visions, which I'm also jealous about, but I've certainly FELT totally at peace and enlightened and calm in those moments.
 
I fear the death of my loved ones before I do my own.
