Seems to me like you have a totally lucid and unmorbid view of death. Examining death lets us enjoy our lives more. Andy beat me to it, but I was going to point out Leroy Sievers podcast, as well.

I think yours is one of the more sensible and healthy attitudes towards death I've heard in awhile. I think about it a lot, too. I'm not afraid of death exactly, just dying painfully. I'm just so intensely curious about what happens afterward that I can't help but think about it! I don’t think it’s morbid at all.

Instead I try to make the most out of every day. However, it would be really nice if we all got a second chance (or an afterlife). I will be sad when you die (if you die before me, that is)... you're awesome in so many ways. Lots of love, C. I think about it too, but as an Atheist my thoughts aren’t as hopeful.

He was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer a year ago and he's been blogging about it for NPR ever since. Amazingly, he's actually in remission at the moment, but that hasn't stopped him from reflecting on his mortality and creating a space where others can talk about their own battles with cancer. http://www.npr.org/blogs/mycancer/ btw, have you ever read Leroy Sievers’ blog, My Cancer?

For every beginning there is an ending and visa versa. I think reflecting about death can make a person more aware of how they really want to live in the present. When I recently watched my died die I was hyper aware that our personalities are 'like shells' we leave behind. I think for this reason facing death can be a gift because it can give us an intuitive sense of something much greater. I enjoyed your reflections.
