NEWS FLASH!  YOU WILL DIE!
IS THAT OK WITH YOU?

THE REALITY

You will die!
_____________________________________________________________

"You are given a gift that might have never happened.  The gift is the awareness of the experiences you get to have - including the miracle and wonders inherent in life and just being human.  It does have an expiration, but I get to have it until then.  I
am so delighted!"

                                                    The BuddhaKahuna


When you are here, you are here.
When you are gone, you are gone.
  It isn't a problem to be gone,
     so long as you are really here
        when you're here.

                                                      Kent Nerburn

WHAT NOT TO DO ABOUT IT

You can worry about it and experience pain around it over and over, but it will do you no good - and in fact will harm you!  It will waste your time and the life you are worrying about losing - ironic, huh?!!

We create needless suffering.  (Read about Suffering And Struggle, so you can stop doing it! And read Pain About Future Pain to get clear on what a waste that is, also! )


THE CONSEQUENCES OF DYING - WHAT, ME WORRY?

The alternatives:

1.  You will go to heaven or some after life - and you'll be ok.

2.  You will go out of existence - and you'll not feel a thing, have no sadness or regret
       or anything. 

Either one seems to have no actual pain. 

It just ends something that is predestined to end: this mortal life. 

We had a human experience, which we would like to go on longer, but we simply had what we had while we had it, in each moment, until the moments end. 

It is simply a good experience, like going to the movies, except we are blessed with it being a lot longer. 


WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT

At this point, you already know what to do about it.  Understand it, accept reality and stop resisting it or worrying about it. Read the recommended sections above.

That's it.  No big deal.  We are simply blessed to have been given this life and to be a miracle machine far above that of any other in existence anywhere (known)! 

So, spend time in Gratitude, and be Happy!  Figure out what you want to do in life and enjoy it while it is here.  Just play The Game Of Life.


FOLLOW THIS ADVICE

I have lived with the prospect of an early death for the last 49 years. I'm not afraid of death, but I'm in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first. I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.

So if everyone is destined to power-down like computers at the end of their lives, what should humans do to lend meaning to their experience?
