Death has been over dramatized in television and in stories. People are so afraid of it, it seems like they forget that every single person goes
through physical death at one point or another. They believe its going to be the most horrific thing in the world when science to begin with tells us
in regular cases it is not.
People tend to think of death=pain, they seem to believe is the most extreme case of pain and are afraid of it, i partly blame the media and lack of
knowledge of guardians to teach children since they are young. If you ask anyone about what they believe the most horrific way to die you usually
get.
Drowning: People who drown recount there is panic but then an overwhelming feeling of peace overtakes them.
Burnt: Hurts in the beginning but if you don't die from the smoke/shock your nerve endings get burnt and you cant feel.
Falling: You don't feel anything from the impact if you survive you are in too much of a shock to feel anything.
Starving: After a bit your body goes into a survival mode and hunger is turned off.
Or maybe people feel death because of the unknown which is the key to peoples fear, like in the movies its always scary until you see the actual
killer/monster/ghost, because till then your mind plays with you making you think and over hype the tension. I believe the fear comes from what people
believe comes after the bodies death, i don't think people should worry themselves with such a trivial thing, it dident hurt before you were born so i
don't expect it to hurt after nor when i am asleep.
In my opinion when you die your consciousness lives on in a dreamlike state, the same way as when you go to sleep death is second to experience in the
constants in life people should learn to accept it as a part of us.
