Interesting.

I really don't care about things being no more, lost or things like that.

There are awful ways to die though. But I sometimes strongly (as in delusionally) believe I'll die and I don't know if it would be better to be more accepting of such fate then. Probably not. I don't think I mind suffering enough. That might be a good thing.

Some people fight longer than others when faced with death. I wonder why that is and maybe I'd give in sooner than most. But I don't think so.

Now that I thought about it some more, I don't think that's really fear of dying. Maybe even the opposite.

Possible trigger:


But sudden death is fine by me.
