The everyday grind and distractions really make you forget the fundamental tragic nature of life. Someone in my wife’s residency program died today from cancer. She was a really cheerful girl that desperately wanted to be a mom and have children that got ovarian cancer. She was heartbroken about never having kids, but was documenting her treatment on Instagram and hopeful of recovery and adopting kids. She wakes up from surgery and was told the cyst ruptured during the operation and cancer has now spread throughout her body. As a doctor, she knew this meant a relatively quick and certain death. Her elderly parents lived just long enough to watch their daughter suffer through the experience and die. Jesus, what a nightmare.
How do you view death? I was terrified of dying when I was a kid, but rarely think of it now. The stoics were on to something when they spoke of the importance of remembering your mortality and letting that affect the way you live. It is amazing how much you can get wrapped up in useless time sucks and status competitions without thinking.

i meditate on death daily in some way. it's important. i hope to be able to look death in the face when it happens and accept it gracefully.
it's the last unique interesting thing that will happen to you.

I have always found that to be a dumb and unconvincing argument. There is a BIG difference between the two. CR on likely being terrified.

The third argument, that your posthumous nonexistence is no more to be feared than your prenatal nonexistence, also fails. As Nagel observed, there is an important asymmetry between the two abysses that temporally flank your life. The time after you die is time of which your death deprives you. You might have lived longer. But you could not possibly have existed in the time before your birth. Had you been conceived earlier than you actually were, you would have had a different genetic identity. In other words, you would not be you.

It’s availability within seconds is comforting.
Belief in preordination and predestination moreso.

It's inevitable, I can't change it, not sure what attitude I'm supposed to have other than I'd like to avoid it for a while.
I'd prefer to know I'm dying, though. I want to know my final thoughts are my final thoughts. If not, I wouldn't know so not a big deal.

I am not afraid of death in theory. I feel I have experienced enough and there isn’t really anything else I want to do or fix other than watch my kids grow up.
That means, however, that I am very afraid of dying before my kids become adults and particularly when they are very young. Perhaps the only thing that scares me more than that is the thought of them dying before me.

My attitude towards death recently changed after an abrupt loss of a parent due to cancer. I used to just never think about it, but now I know there is a pretty high likelihood I could get cancer and just die too.
Sounds cliche but I just don’t give a fuck about small things re social interactions or business stuff. Also Began taking a more paternal role in the family at age 31. Values just change, at least for me. Scheduled a vacation in August and one in November. If they don’t like it, fire me and I’ll cop unemployment while chillin on an island somewhere

Picture of the dead girl. She was totally healthy and got a cancer that has fewer than 100 documented cases ever.

"Any man can be trampled down by superior force, and death, in whatever shape it comes, is only death, which comes to all."
When I was like 20 or 22 I thought the most noble death would be to die in battle like the ancients. Now I would prefer to die in bed at a ripe old age surrounded by family and memories of a life well-lived. If battle comes I will take that, though.
I am not a religious man but I will gird myself and take on whatever comes with acceptance. We must strive for life and enjoy it but not have fear when our moment comes.

I think about it everyday; it compels my every move, every decision and my general attitude from sun up to sun down.
