Are you scared to get old and die?

[marieelissa]

Are you scared of medical issues that will arise with age and are you scared to die?

[dreamyxo]

I don't want to get old but I'm not scared of dying.

[mc1962]

Yes.  I do not fear dying but growing old and lonely is a fear that I have had for years.  I think everyone has that concern.

[monasiers]

Death is an inevitablilty of life. You cannot have one without the other.

[candyterrius]

Hardly no. Death is part of life. There can be no birth without death just as there can be no day without night. Health issues that come with age just doesn’t happen overnight. Because we were taught wrong as children to consume animal products, we can expect to have health issues that can develop into slow degenerative disease that can possibly lead to an early demise. So terminal diseases like diabetes, heart disease, cancer et al are inevitable. Please bear in mind farm animals are sentient beings like us who had to endure an agonizing torturous death just to land in our dinner plate. They fear being killed just as we do, so anyone who consume the by product will have to bear and carry the consequences of sickness and disease which is our karmic debt.

I sure am. i am getting old now and it sure is creepy. The whole time factor. I am old now so i feel like i do not have much time to get where i want to go in life before it comes to a standstill because of real old age. Yes, i am frightened of death for sure, I dont know how or when it will happen. I sure hope i wont rot in a nursing home. Yikes it is so scary.

I AM old
But I have never been happier or more fulfilled in my life!  I can tell you one thing........ Life begins at 50!!

[lgemini]

I would be very happy to be very old (100 year old), and I would not be scared of dying.  I had so many friends and family members died at a young age.   I would love to see my great-grand kids or great great-grand kids.  I see as getting old as a blessing.

[bubba9052]

yes i am scared of dying because i dont know what to expect when i die. dying is one of my worst fears and spiders i dont wanna die

[kodomfulmanar]

I dont fear death. I fear death at a young age. I have so many things I wish to do before I die (like see my grandchildren). If I can do those, I would be happy and not be afraid of death.

[heartofphila]

It is scary, but try not to think about it.

[bud1]

No. Most of us will grow old and die.  We need to live like it is our last day on earth. Do the right thing because it is the right thing to do

[queenofnines]

Well I hope I don't get Alzheimer's or have a heart attack young.  That would suck.  But no, I'm not scared to die.  I just think it's sad because I like livin'.   

[denaPC2011]
