Re: Scared of death

I don't like the "I was dead before I was born" stuff. It's fine in a glib way, like that famous quote, but (imo) it stops you from getting to the truth, which is that before you were born there was no you. After you die, you aren't dead, because there is no you.
As Metric said in my earlier linked post, you only exist within a certain area of space-time, and birth and death are just some of the boundaries. I never lived in China, the same way I never lived in 1927, the same way I never lived on Mars, the same way I never lived in 3011.

IMO, you were always alive. Life is all you have ever known so it is everything to you. There is no before and there is no after.

Also, none of you exist and are just here to trick me and/or are figments of my imagination.
