…answer this question, I will definitely say that I am not afraid to die. I had noticed that most of the discussions posted are about the death of their loved ones. I don't have a low opinion in sharing such sentiments about death. In fact, when my father died three years ago, I had seen how he struggled and had his last breath. At first, I am in a feeling of big fear to lose him. I think it is normal to undergo such feeling. In the end, the beauty of death comes along with the moment of acceptance. Thus, I am not afraid to die.

I am afraid to die but I would want to die like my grandma. That is the way I want to die because I do not want anyone to cry for me.

@mlgen1037 I hope that you can dream about her. In fact, I randomly dream about my late father. I think he is still looking after us. I assumed he is not at peace because of what his siblings doing to us.

@Shavkat She didnt suffer much. She just had a headached that is all but no major diseases. I still miss her and writing that made me think of her. She would show herself to me thru my dreams and tell me that she misses us too as if she was alive. But you are right, she is in good hands and so is your dad. They are the ones watching us from above.

@Shavkat Age is just a number. If we are healthy and productive then life is great.

I don't like to die yet. I still have to see a lot of things and experience some stages in my life.
As to my bedridden father who has a liver cancer, I am ready to lose him if it means liberating him completely from his pains relative to his cancer.

For me its the way in which you can die that does not compute with me.
I am not afraid to die in itself but the way in which you can say of terrible illnesses yes in a way.

Best way to go out of this world its much being ill before and knowing and fearing what can happen I reckon anyway.

@pitsipeahie That's what we also felt. I think she didn't suffer.

If Vampires are real, I would have let one infect me just to get immortal.

@Shavkat Well at this moment I am happy alone so it won't be an issue to me. I am not really a family person. I just want to be alive until the day of the apocalypse.

It depends on how its planned to come one shot no worries but slowly then definitely its something to be scared off.

@nitirrbb7 In my religion context, it is not acceptable to kill oneself. I am not going further because it is a long story.
