    Are you sitting down?

    Good.

    I'd like you to get settled in. Get comfortable, relax, and put all the tings from your day aside for a while, problems and all. I want you to get comfortable to the point where you wont want to get up for a good long while.

    Settled in? Perhaps youve gotten one of your favorite beverages or a tasty snack If not, i would encourage you to get one now, before you get too settled in. If youve still got shoes or socks on, Id like you to take them off now. Let your bare feet feel the air and the fuzzy goodness of the carpet, or smooth cool bare floor.

    If youve got a favorite chair or beanbag or whatever, Get in it.Are you settled in satisfactorily? Are you nice and calm, relaxed on this lazy Sunday afternoon? You may be thinking about the glorious sleep you will have tonight. Roll with that thought and keep it pleasantly in mind as an end to the day's activities. Great job. Now that you're all settled in nice and comfy, I'd like to tell you something. You're going to die. One day, the sun will rise and you wont be here. Not in an abstract, far away kind of way, but in a definite, as sure as this moment is real, its real kinda way. One day you will stop breathing and never resume breathing again. A time will come when you wont exist.

    And there's absolutely nothing you can do to stop it. Nothing.

    Was well aware of this before hand, and I have come to accept it. We are beings made from meaninglessness. We are called back into entropy from whence we came. We are made against the direction of the universe, we are are giving meaning to what was once meaningless. Perhaps the universe did create us. Perhaps it created us to be the ones that finally gave it meaning.

    But no, by all means, keep going on about how "you get it" and "everything is transitory", psycho Christian Zen babble bullshit. Im fucking scared and dont want to die. This fear is raw and best faced just as it is.

    Fearing death is like fearing life.
    The sooner you come to terms with the big picture, the sooner you cease living in your head, and you begin to live in the real world.
    Just because you know yourself to be a pathetic coward, it doesn't mean that everyone else is.

    The scariest thing for me is hw fragile we are. I hurt my back moving a couch a few years ago and havent been the same sense. It fucked my back up to the point where I still cant fully walk upright. Just that easily. Now it wasnt life threatening, but it was certainly life altering. Any little thing can kill you for any of a million reasons, or for absolutely no reason at all. One missstep, one wrong move....shit you never even think about.

    Like those people that died that lived near that Air Force base a few months ago. Plane just crashed thru their roof and killed all of them. It didnt matter how healthy they ate or exercised or what the fuck ever.

    Death can come at any time. Think about it, whats really keeping you alive right now? Really? You just take for granted youll just keep onliving cuz thats what youve always done, but millions upon millions of people die everyday from the most mundane shit. And this is in the 1st world, never mind the 3rd.

    Life is so fragile. SO fragile.

    Life is about the odds. All of it. From conception to your last day alive, every day is a day playing the odds. What were the odds that you would be one of millions of sperm to fertilize your mother's egg? And The odds that she would live in an environment conducive to bearing a child. and that you would be born with no (major) complications. And that you didnt get killed while you were a young child from some childhood disease or random act of dumbassedness.

    What are the odds that you, little sperm, would make it through school and survive to adulthood? And now that youre here in adulthood, every single day presents challenges and scenarios that potentially involve you not making it out alive. Whether you are aware of these probabilities or not. So much random shit goes into calculating the percentage that youll make it through the day, and with crime, pollution, food, cars,disease, and all the things that could potentially prove mortal to you, the deck is most definitely stacked against you. Daily. Its just a matter of time till your number's up. Today, tomorrow, 1 year or 50. It dont matter. Its coming. Right now, its coming.

    Only thing you can do is try to make your time worth it to something that will endure: the rest of the human race.

    Don't worry about your happiness/health/income, worry about something greater. You're just, to borrow a turn of phrase, dust on the wind. Let it go, and try to make the whole storm better!

    Don't threaten me with a good time.

    I'm comfortable with dying. Totally okay with it. When I was a little kid I was afraid of dumb shit like car wrecks and mosquitos sucking out all my blood and my older sister. I was talking with the next door neighbor about how I was always scared and he said, "The only thing I'm afraid of is dying without regrets." I didn't understand what that meant until he explained it. I've tried to live my life by that. I've made mistakes and I've fucked up but I mean, I don't really regret it because either it taught me what not to do, or they led to some great stories I can tell my kids. I totally had a big mortality moment a few years ago when I had to have emergency surgery, but I've come to terms with it. I'm going to die, and I'm okay with this. I'm also looking forward to it somewhat.
