I used to be scared of death, too, then I realised how terrible life was. Now I look forward to it so there will be no more suffering. Oblivion is better than pain. I'm still scared of the pain of dying, just not of what may lie beyond.
Well, life for me currently is not terrible, so while oblivion is certainly better than pain, satisfaction and fulfillment are better than either. If my life situation changes, though, I may join your ranks.
For all we know it’s an eternity of being frozen in whatever instant you were in at the moment of death. The people who die in their sleep literally get eternal slumber but the people who get chainsaw accidents get a moment of limb tearing pain stretched to eternity
Probably not though, probably your thing
It might be anything, we have no way of knowing. Hopefully it's not reincarnation, as most lives on this planet are worse than mine.
