Does your view on death and the beyond effect the way you live your life?
Or do you just get on with it? |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Just get on with it.
In my book, I wont care when I am gone. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Not really, none of us are getting out alive so live the shit out of it while the going is good  |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
No, it doesn't, I just get on with it. I don't think about death much |

Partially yes. But it's a good drive. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Just get on with it but try to be careful.
I've almost died 3 times now and live with a heart condition. I could spend life freaking out and worrying myself sick, or I can be careful while still enjoying life.

Death is just a natural inevitable state of life so, just get on with life. Be kind, be nice and enjoy yourself. |

I get waves of panic every so often about death even though it is inevitable. It's also hard for me to accept that someone you love just isnt there anymore. A few recent close deaths have made me see life very differently. |

Death completes the circle.
I just try to live my life as best as I can, look to improve myself a little each day.
I don't fear death, I fear dying alone |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I try and get on with it, I’m fearful of leaving my children behind so I am more cautious. In terms of what comes after, I don’t know but I don’t want to live in fear that something bad might happen if I did something wrong. I’m a good person and aim for a positive speech at my funeral |

We can’t live our lives around ‘what if’
Death is inevitable - we just don’t know when! Use your time on this mortal coil wisely ... |

Life's become such a massive pain in the arse, lately, that death doesn't bother me as much as it used to. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Yes it always has.
I do believe that there is more after this life, I have no idea what, but something.
That something is determined by how I’ve lived this life, so I never do anything intentional to hurt or harm anyone or anything else.
I also try and help anyone and anything I can where possible.
Just in case I’m right, this philosophy seems right to me.
It’s a shame some of the rotten scumbags out there that take pleasure from hurting others don’t take a similar approach. Especially when you see people like the scrote that threw the kid off the Tate building and the shit that committed 37 atrocious crimes against children and elderly when he should have been locked up. On a daily basis we see such people who have no moral code doing these things, and I can’t help thinking that some belief may be better than none. |

I'm conflicted. On the one hand I'm all "well we only live once, let's eat drink fuck and be merry". On the other hand I am painfully aware that eating drinking and being merry too much may drastically reduce my lifespan... Not fucking though. I'm not conflicted about fucking  |

I cannot die |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Can't really believe all I've done in half a century. The people I've been lucky enough to call friends, the countries and cultures I've managed to get to, the personal achievements that I've surprised myself with.
So, I've had an amazing life, in my opinion, though, as I now have young children, they are the reason why I want at least 10 more years, to be able to guide and advise them on life's journey, so they become better people than I ever was.
The way I lived my life means that's probably not likely and the missed opportunity with my kids would be the only thing that scares me about death. |

At least I can say with some certainty that should I die tomorrow then I will die knowing I lived. I laughed, I cried, I travelled, I danced, I ate, I saw many things and I did many many things. |

Some times I wonder what if we suddenly wake up and all our current life (our job, our belongings, partners, loved ones, kids, parents, achievements etc) are actually a dream.
Is that what death is? - the end of our current "dream/life?

I think of death to being the same as before I was born. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I was convinced in 2018 when I knew I had throat cancer that I was going to die .
This was prior to confirmed diagnosis, as everyone I knew who had this type of cancer died or were terminal, a very good friend and brave man included..
So I was convinced my life was at an end, we had a family holiday (kids didn’t know I was ill) which the girls already said would be the last one as a family, but to me it was very likely to be my last holiday. You sit and cry thinking about your life, all the things you should have done, all the things you know you won’t get time to do. I didn’t tell anyone about this as I just thought that was that..
Then when I got my diagnosis and they said 99% treatable, it was such a weight and burden taken off my shoulders.
Recently though I had a mini stroke, perhaps this is a sign that I shouldn’t be here, that in one way or another a greater power is trying to take me..
so now I’m considering not working anymore, I have some money and am looking to use it as a way to give me an income instead, still not told my employer that due to health issues I want to give up work.
My contract states if I leave before May 1st he will look to take bake £5000 costs incurred by the search and select company he employed to obtain me..
So being ill again has made me think about what’s important in life for me now, yet there are still pressures from outside to force me to work, even though the pressures of working may bring on another stroke.
So when I see your post about death, I have faced this fear and continue to do so. I don’t certainly want a massive stroke leaving me drooling or paralysed down one side, the mini stroke was bad enough..
Anyway just my thoughts on this subject

No, we should all be able to retire earlier, have a few good years then hit the “Off” switch
No need for care homes, geriatric care. |

Sorry to hear of your troubles.
Most decent employers would wave clawing back the finders fee given your health issues.
Why don't you let them know what you are thinking now and they can search for your replacement and you can stay until they arrive as a compromise?
By doing this your employer won't be left in the lurch when you do go and probably even more likely to wave the finders fee.
Whatever you choose good luck for the future! |

My views on death and the beyond are this......
Death is an inevitable part of the human life cycle. No one lives for ever. I accept death will come. I no longer fear death. Knowing death will come does affect the way I live. I stop to talk. I stop to view. I stop to smell and to share. Those are the things that the stressed out rushers in our societies fail to enjoy. Then BUMP they are dead no matter how wealthy , famous or infamous.
Make friends. Love yourself.
Live for the now cos there isn't a beyond. |

So what about people like me who would have died if it wasn’t for advances in medical sciences, do you think that we shouldn’t save people like me, perhaps we should die and therefore not be a burden on the purse strings of society
Ok look at this another way euthanasia at 65

I came close to death once and I'm not afraid to die.
I believe when we die that's not the end. I believe we live on thru our children, grandchildren, friends, lovers. They carry memories of us, both good and bad and they celebrate our life and how we've touched them thru tears and laughter.
I refuse to live the rest of my life with "what ifs". |

Death itself doesn’t scare me, more how i die.
I am scared of dying a horrific death. I want to die peacefully. But more than that i’m scared of leaving my children. I don’t want to leave them before they are old enough to be able to go it alone in the world. They are my reason for being. Having to say goodbye to them would be intolerable. |

I learned very early on that life is short and have lived a full rich life. Seeing adults around me that were unhappy, unfulfilled and repressed had a greater effect. I've been incredibly lucky to have had my freedom, which has come at a cost but I'd barely change anything....except meeting my lover earlier and ending my last relationship with honour and care.
I don't feel many people understand that they can live different lives from what the mainstream presents us. It makes me sad. It takes strength but it's absolutely worth every minute. |

"Death is a part of life and I don't think we are finished once we die.
It doesn't really bother me.. However the thought of leaving others behind does.
As long as I'm not a burden to anyone, I hope to stay around for a long time. "
Death itself doesn’t upset me, never seeing my kids and grandchildren again does |

"I am dealing with the death of my beloved 95 year old Swedish mum who passed away on Wednesday due to heart failure. We should all live life to the full as she did and die, if we can, well. She died at home with her family, so no hospitals or care homes. Wishing you all a sexy Christmas. Henry x"
Hey Henry..sorry to hear that. 95 eh, that is a great age and to be surrounded by those that love you at such a time is special.
That's how my nan went..bless her.
Take care Henry and thanks for your Christmas wishes x |

Not scared of it. It'll happen when it happens.
At my very lowest I had everything all lined up ready to kill myself, don't know why I didn't, can't remember.

It's those that are left beside who suffer when there loved one dies,I'm not afraid of dying I am afraid that I won't see my Dad,partner or other loved ones again when I die,I believe in God and heaven I doubt I would ever come to terms with my loss if I didn't think that I'd see them all again one day |

"Does your view on death and the beyond effect the way you live your life?
Or do you just get on with it?"
Yes. I was told at 40 that I had cancer. Huge wake up call. My whole life attitude has changed as a result.

Our kids are adults now so they can stand on their own feet but having just discovered we are going to be grandparents for the first time next summer we want a good few years seeing them grow up.
My death doesn’t scare me as much as the thought of my wife going before me we have been together forty years so I know if she goes first it will break my heart |

Dude, earlier this year I was at an all-time low and seriously thought about ending it all. I've never felt like that before.
Although I'm not afraid of death, it's going to happen sometime, I didn't want to be selfish and hurt those I would have left behind.
Things have improved massively in my life, and I am glad I didn't go through with it, as I wouldn't have experienced the good times since I hit that low spot.
Hang on in there. |

I watched my mam die and I have to say, it is something that changes you forever...watching someone you love so much take their last breath and pass away. Puts your own mortality into perspective.
She died 1 month after my mastectomy, feel like she gave up her life for me. I felt incredibly guilty for that. |

When I was younger, became very ill suffering from a rare form of cancer. When I was going through chemotherapy, which turned into side affects that turned into a condition that affected my mobility/balance for years. After this experience I try and help others, be kind to everyone I meet, be open minded about everything. Looking to travel, see the world, experience different cultures, have new experience, experience life on my terms. I’m not an adrenaline junky or a tree hugger, I’m just a casual participant and temporary observer. When death comes, I won’t be afraid, I will have lived live in my terms, shown compassion and kindness and I won’t have anything to reproach myself about anything. |

The more I research the less I believe in death, I myself am more towards the belief that we just transend to a next state of living and the energy you live by in one stage depicts the next stage you in counter throughout the journey,
the meaning of any life would in-fact be meaningless if it was as simple as a start and a finish, there has to be more to it !!! |

For a very long time I couldn't breathe, I couldn't swallow. I have never known such trauma. Somehow I got through it. I hope that I never feel that way again.

As humans we relate living with a perception of what we believe is living but really all we know about living is what we experience in that time frame of our time spent in what we perceive as living, we As humans believe living is measured by what we see and can feel and touch but is it possible that living is nothing more that something of being conscious and present in a period of time |

Having come close on a couple of occasions in the past and having lost some friends way too early in the journey it certainly makes me live every day in the best way I can. All we can ask for is to have left some kind of legacy and something to be proud of when we go. |

100%. Good friends - real friends - will have your back, right or wrong. Sadly it's not as common as it might be. |

I've shaken hands with the reaper at least twice now.
It holds no terror for me.
Just hope my parents are gone first. No one should outlive their children. |

If you are scientific can you at least agree you are energy and when you die that energy does not simply end? It is recycled, even transformed into another form of energy, it cannot be destroyed..... |

My view on death is
I don’t remember my birth or anything before it and death will be the same
We all had a start date we all have an end date I doubt there is anything else |

Well. If Death heads my way anytime soon, I'm going out the way I came in....
Kicking and screaming. |

There are only two certainties in life - death and taxes, as far as we know you can only avoid one of them. |

Very much this.
As to what it’s really all about? Nobody knows. |

I do believe part of the spirit lives on to guide loved ones. For example since my Gran passed away I've become obsessed with ensuring the garden birds have enough food/drink before I leave for work. Even if the weather is bad. She was a great lover of garden birds and always did the same according to my mother. |

Our death is merely to continue the existence of our Planet .
When we decompose our nutrients ( if buried ) are sucked up by plants , which then release our oxygen so we can live , until we die , and so the cycle continues |

Happy Xmas to you whether you are with loved ones or alone. Let's now get into the festive spirit, forget any seasonal affective disorder caused by the long nights and park this topic of death. H |

I don't want to die, if I could sacrifice people so I can live forever, I'd do it. |

I live for the only time that I believe I will have any existence, which is now until I die. |

This is sad |

"Does your view on death and the beyond effect the way you live your life?
Or do you just get on with it?"
It's something we can't control so better just to get on with living. That said I have had the odd thought reafrding what happens, but I very much doubt there is any "beyond" which is a bit sad, but like I say if you can't control it there's no point in worrying. |
