Quoting: Only Me Obviously, the way the world is spiraling has a lot to do with it, but I also wonder if we're being spiritually prepared by divine means. I’ve been haunted by death every night, intensely, for the past two months. I think what is causing it is that I feel death all around, everywhere I go. The spirits seem louder. It is like a heavy dark cloud in the sky. I know that sounds crazy but that’s how I feel. I’ve always worried about death even when I was little but this is a different feeling. |

Truly blessed. So, when I see the world hate itself, yes a part of me dies. But I have not died, and will not mourn for death, for I am a true keeper of the light. SO, ALL OF YOU MOURNERS, be a light bearer, even when the world is completely dark. |

And I think we could all benefit from near death of ourselves or loved ones even.

I believe we are just about to slip over into end times. That may be why you are having these thoughts of death..God is prodding you to seek Him before it's too late. But hey, if you're scared of death, can I introduce you to Jesus? He's the real deal. He was God, stuffed himself into a human suit, came down here, and died for our sins. In other words he paid the penalty looming over us for God said "the wages of sin are death", and "the soul that sins shall die." But God loves us so much that he paid the penalty for us. We just have to believe it, trust in Jesus, and repent (turn from sin). Hard to believe? It was unbelief in God's word that put us in this predicament. "Did God say that you would surely die?" Eve believed that God's word was not true, and death came to the world. Today, you need to believe that Jesus came, that He is who He said he was and that He did what he said he was doing. And then trust only in Him. That means no karma, no doing good deeds for brownie points etc. Pray. Ask God for truth. I really hope you think hard about this.It's not a joke, hell is real, and it's not a nice place. God bless you. All who call on the name of the Lord will be saved. Acts 2:21 Remember it.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83686976 "Never underestimate the pain of a person. In all honesty, everyone is struggling. Just some people are better at hiding it than others." Everyone has to work out their own salvation. Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards. |

I just hope I go in my sleep. Going in my sleep would be like winning the lottery, IMO. Better than winning the lottery, actually. Next best thing would be to die instantly in car crash, hit by lightning, or be shot randomly. Getting nuked would be cool and instantaneous. Never know it was coming and just be a shadow on the sidewalk. Talk about bad ass. Problem with the nuke is many would suffer long agonizing death. Something like falling from a high building or a plane crash would be painless and OK I guess, although you would likely be aware for several seconds or minutes what's next. Pretty scary, IMO. The worst would be long painful illness or radiation poisoning, and then die. That would really suck. Being slowly tortured to death would probably be thee worst I can think of. |

Quoting: Traveled Less Historically when I thought about dying it centered around the idea of being gone vs being here. But I'm older now, and lately, my thoughts are starting to get specific. Like who will be there at the moment?, how much pain will I have gone through and for how long?, who will struggle without my help?, etc. These have been my same thoughts. It gets more specific. |

Being my natural self is a revolutionary act, now. But the NWO is here, with momentum like a giant river of lead. Can't be helped. :( Nor is personal health getting any better... But never mind Absolutely blessed by the gods I was, born in the 60's in Suomi-Finland. Definitely a very winning ticket in the cosmic lottery. Got to grow up and even be an adult and raise a family for a couple of decades in the best society ever. :) All gone now. :( Will be just fine, though, walking with the Forefathers and Mothers in Tuonela/Niefelheim. Who knows, these days...maybe the tyrants kill me in battle, so that I can feast in Valhalla. Still, political depression is just that.
