It's more a question of how does the death of any one person truly impact the whole of humanity? Why does the death of any one person affect any of us as profoundly as it sometimes does? For me - my death will have little to no impact on anyone when it comes, but there have been those that have passed whose oassing has had a huge impact on me. So - being that death is just the abscence of life n that is really a good thing - why is death viewed so negatively?

No one likes the idea of losing someone they love. And you admitted that yourself.
It's good for you that you seem to have made your peace with the fact that death just happens (or so I understood from what you wrote), however every person in this world is different, and what makes sense to one person might not ring any bells for the one sitting next him/her.
I find it hard to understand why you're asking "
why is death viewed so negatively?" or saying things like "
death is just the abscense of life" and "
that's really a good thing".
But I know that sometimes it's not a matter of understanding why, just accepting it.
There may be nothing in life for some, but certainly there's nothing in death for anyone. That's my take on this whole life/death subject.
