well said zingkira, that's exactly how i envision death. my take on death: death is a fear and fear makes a person more sane and thoughtful. if you think it positively, and believe that you may die anytime, you may want to live your life to the fullest, try not to hurt people around you, make the most out of what life has offered to you! so yeah, death rocks!!! :P talking of fear, death can well be juxtaposed with scary things that one may do in life - say bungee jumping. i have done it a couple of times myself so i can tell you from my experience. a person looking at someone doing bungee jumping may think, wow! how could he do that. its scary!! eewww! but when you actually do it, it's not all that scary. sure your heart races like anything in the start, but once you jump it does not feel all that bad. in fact, you end up enjoying it! hehe:P well, death may not be as easy as bungee jumping. but as zingkira said, your consciousness is not conscious enough to feel it second after a second. it just comes and boom there you go-- you are dead!!! :P chill out people~!
