Thoughts on Dying

Brief thoughts on how we all want to die.

I wonder what that last moment is like. That second as your eyes shut for the very last time. People commonly ask the question, “how do you want to die?” Most unwaveringly answer with, “in my sleep.” Personally, I’d prefer to be fully awake because dying is truly a once in a life time opportunity. You get one chance to soak up an experience that both frightens and inspires the world. I don’t say this in a suicidal tone or anything like that. Just the idea of this experience that no one understands until it’s too late to be comforted by the knowledge. I like to think it’d be peaceful. Or a least not arduous. I’d be bubbling with anticipation, about to see the next chapter of human experience. Whether it’s heaven, hell, rebirth or nothingness. I wouldn’t want to miss it. And given this argument, maybe some of the other people on this planet of ours might take up the same attitude. I'd love to hear other's thoughts on this or other topics. Don't hesitate to hit me up.
