I have tried to kill myself(half heartedly) many times. This life isn't worth the effort. So while I don't know if I respect death, I don't respect life, either!!
I was told that the older you get that the more you fear death.
I don't.
What I do fear is this - having an empty, shallow meaningless life.
Oh shit! I DO have an empty, shallow, meaningless life; it's scarey!
One thing would be really nice - to do something useful and somehow contribute something to society before I die.......so, in a sense, I am scared of dying before that happens.
But, there again, doing something 'good' and useful' just feeds the ego, doesn't it?
My ego doesn't need feeding - I am already a pompous ass and if I did something 'good' my head would swell up so much it'd probably explode.... and then I'd die.
Nah... better keep living the meaningless, futile life - the other option sounds too dangerous!
