Why should I die? Whats the point of death, whats the gain in dying early?


Question


Why should I die? Whats the point of death, whats the gain in dying early?
Everyones always asking whats the point of living. Whats the point of dying?


Answer


I dont know what the point of death is, besides that is the natural path of all living things, as well as the great equalizer. Whether you are rich, poor, smart, or dumb, good or bad, in the end it doesnt matter, because all of us die and are in the end have the same fate. brI also do not know the point of dying early...again, I do not think there is a point. Maybe there is, but I dont know, and I think it is good to not know everything. We spend our entire lives having things explained to us, and being conditioned to think that everything has to happen for a reason, when it doesnt, and death is the reminder of that. It brings us to our knees and reminds us how extremely vulnerable we are, how we cannot and will never know everything. brbrBut I also understand your question on a personal level too since Ive watched a couple of loved ones die before my eyes and I for years it has made me think about death and whats the point of it all, etc.. I still grapple with it and cry and get angry and sad and go through so many emotions about it. brWe live and death doesnt really touch our spheres until we lose someone or something we love dearly, only then do we question and have it become a theme. I dont think this is a bad thing, I think it is painful, yes, but it is also important, because theres nothing quite like death to get us thinking of life. The two go hand in hand, and there would not be one without the other. brI dont mean to sound too esoteric or philosophical, these are simply my own thoughts and conclusions so far to my own personal experiences.
