Your Thoughts on Death?

...and that's why I like the fact death doesn't discriminate

No matter if you're a poor schmuck that never had any luck in life, or you're some celeb, put on a pedestal by the idiots around you
A hard worker leading a comfortable life, or a rich bugger that conned everyone to get where and what he wanted


All WILL be dead!

On a side note, wanting to be immortal is only desired by 2 kind of people:
-The young
-The Rich/powerful

The latter will be the only ones to be granted that 'privilege' though

I really don't fear death itself. I pretty much embrace it as something natural, as part of life itself.
But looking at all those really horrible ways how you can die? Fatal diseases, accidends, being murdered? Yeah, that is some terrifying stuff right there :O
