What is it about death that has people “quivering” with fear? I know what a way to open a blog right? Eh it is what it is. I digress. So I wonder why people fear death. It seems as though because it has a negative connotation attached to it that it’s taboo or makes it just that much more to be feared. For me I embrace it. It’s nothing to fear nor anything to be stand-offish about. It’s not something I believe to be taboo, rather to be embraced and all that it entails. I’ve also been thinking on suicide and why people view it as such a bad thing. I see it as the ultimate release/ freedom. The only down side is the fact that I view it as being the ultimate from of selfishness. Like if I didn’t actually give a rats ass about the people I love then I’d certainly do it. When you die, people “may” morn for a while, however you will soon be forgotten. It will go from thinking of you consistently, to every now and then, to once a year maybe. Why? Even when you die of “natural” causes it will be the same way. Morn for a bit, remembered, then forgotten. So what’s the difference between suicide and natural death? For me I see no “real” difference other than people think when you take your own life it’s a bad thing and for those “religious” folk you will go to that place where and evil red man will have is way with your soul for allllll of eternity. That in and of itself is laughable!! Again I digress. To me it seems that life PERIOD is a big FUCK YOU that you consistently either try to get away from, or make the raping a bit easier by finding lube when and where you can. Shits sad and I’m truly tired of it. I’ve thought on death before however not with such clarity. It’s like clear why it’s okay and nothing to fear. If you haven’t noticed I don’t see much wrong with it at all. It’s fucking awesome to me. Again, I digress. This whole I idea of “The pursuit of happiness shit?! It’s for the fucking birds! Why do I view it as such you ask? Well I thank you for your interest. Let me shed some light on that for you. You are constantly on a fucking grind behind the 8 ball trying to make sense of things. Who is truly happy now-a-days? Money makes no one happy, so what is true happiness? We constantly run after it like rats in a maze never to actually obtain it or, to have it for only so long then lose it, only to start from the beginning. It’s like hitting reset on your game before reaching a save/check point. Fuck that! It all seems to be a big joke to me. Seems as though we are here, no real resources, and someone says “do the best you can” all while “taking notes” from a distance or behind some two-way glass mirror. The thought of my life being one big LOL doesn’t really sit well with me. I just think differently and not in the norm. In summation, death isn’t such a huge deal. Its peaceful, empty, freedom, what’s the big deal? ~Tis All~
The subsequent time I learn a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I do know it was my choice to read, however I actually thought youd have one thing attention-grabbing to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you would repair when you werent too busy looking for attention.
Who the hell are you talking to? With your 4 measly posts on your measly websites; blogster for example. I googled you and it looks to me joined a lot of sites On September of this year. So I guess I’ll dismiss you as a troll or a bot, either way, it makes no never mind to me.
I can’t leave f^^& comment without signing up…It keeps kicking me out…I’m tired of writing for an hour just to get it discard….MY TIME IS VALUABLE!!!!
Calm down. Obviously you’re not doing something right. It have to be YOUR browser or something because everyone else is commenting on this blog; on my site, just fine. As you can see it’s not the site but you, seeing as this comment showed up.
I love the way your mind works, but its very dark.
Death is something that alot of people see differently.
I think its something that should’nt be taken so lightly, but if you
look at it the way you do, then I get it. Just believe it the same way you do.
I can’t say I agree with your view of things. I personally don’t like the view everyone takes on happiness. Like it is something to be obtained, as if one thing will make you eternally happy. I.E. If I get this job, this house, this spouse, have kids…whatever it is. Happiness is an emotion….not a state of being. Just as I’m not always hungry, sleepy, angry, sad…I’m not always happy. The sooner people realize this fact, the better off we will all be. Life gets dull and humdrum for everyone, the answer is not suicide. Try something new would be my suggestion the next time the razor blade starts looking appealing for a reason other than hairy legs. And as for forgetting those who are dead, I believe that has more to do with how important that person was in your daily life. For example if my mother died I don’t think I could ever stop thinking of her, she is a huge part of my life. For someone less important to me it probably wouldn’t be the same. I do not fear death, it would be pointless. But I do not think life a waste, I am glad to have existed.
Nothing will make you “eternally” happy. That’s why its obtained, lost, then you are searching for it all over again. Unlike hunger. You are hungry you go to eat and are done, or sleepy, once you feel it, get some rest, then you are good. However trying to find and hold on to that thing that makes you happy isn’t such an easy fix. Its almost as though its an addiction. Something is wrong if you aren’t “always” happy or stay in any other state for “too” long. So they have drugs to help you obtain and maintain it easier. I guess its the value that one places on such? I digress. To some suicide is the answer. Its all in what you have lived and experienced. Take someone who may or may not be up in age or older, and they are tired of the life they have lived and they feel they have accomplished much. They are tired because maybe they have an illness and just to get up and fight daily is a battle. They may be an amputee and their quality of life is no longer what it used to be. They went from being a vibrant outgoing and active person relying on no one to bedridden, unable to move, and relying on everyone. To that person, it may be the answer that THEY want. Who are we to say or judge otherwise? It’s all in what one has experienced. Statistically I should be crazy and insane, behind bars, and repeating all of what I’ve seen and or experienced. However I’m not. It goes to show that one can overcome the most seemingly insurmountable odds. So when is enough enough? When is it “okay” to just stop fighting or going on? For the sake of others comfortably? Again who are we to judge? Again I say I understand much, not that it means I agree or disagree with on thing or another, or condone one thing or another, I just have a better understanding and clarity on things. For me, I say leave it up to said person. Whatever they wish, depending on circumstances, then we should have nothing to say and be okay with it. Thank you for your input.
This made me sleepy! Kill yourself, you’re selfish. Die of natural causes, you’re selfless … Such is the same for openin’ your eyes or givin’ up on things. For those that look for “happiness”, it’s mainly ’cause they haven’t found it within them. So to create the illusion of such, to search for somethin’ that takes no wanderin’, is just as dumb as the person in a rut tellin’ themselves they can’t get out of it.
That’s about it from me.
So finally someone GETS IT! Figured you’d be the one to get it bro.. All in all..its all the same lol
Oh, Siflan can’t speak no more huh? Just gone casually stroll onto my blog and not say a goddamned word? Ok.
So now that I’ve actually had time to read (and re-read) since Carlos Spicy Weiner is no longer blowing up my IM telling me to comment on something I haven’t read…
I understand your views on death. Not to say that I agree with them whole-heartedly but I get it. Life sucks major balls and death is freeing and something that shouldn’t be feared. Okay, cool. But if life sucks bollocks, I can only imagine the major balls death is gonna suck. I mean, we as humans are living, breathing beings and yes, life is never gonna always be good. You have your ups, downs, twists and turns but when you die.. That’s IT. It’s the END. No more breathing, drinking(I can’t believe I typed that. LMAO!), ups, downs, twists and turns. Yes, people will mourn you when they’re shoveling dark on your grave and lowering your casket into the ground(that is, if you don’t opt out and decide to be cremated and kept on somebody’s fireplace). People will say things about you at your wake and funeral but do I really want to be remembered as the woman that offed herself because life sucked? Nah. We all fear death because everybody wants to live and living is suppose to be good. Even though, we all know that life tends to suck major bollocks. People fear what they don’t know. Do we know what death is like? No. Not until we actually experience it.
I personally like being.. I accept that death is a part of life.. The end to the being of “her”. Personally, I’d rather be free in LIFE then free in Death… I mean, we’re all gonna die anyways. So why not enjoy life…It’s still gonna suck but sucking feels good if you’re doing it right. LMAO.
Wow @ that last part.
I suppose its all in how you view such. If you believe in an afterlife then, depending on how you’ve lived, you look forward to such. If not, then who knows whats to be expected. As I stated no one has come “back” and explained what exactly its like. So for me, I’d like to believe that it can’t be much worse than what we are experiencing now. Again its what I would like to believe. I also stated that I do believe that suicide would be the ultimate form of selfishness, however the flip side again, if I didn’t care much, and sadly i do, I would. I don’t care what the “masses” say about me. I’m GONE!! I’m chilling and free, and you’re still dealing your fucked up existence. I respect your wanting to be free in life than death though.
and yes sucking/licking is superb when don’t correctly.
I will have to disagree about suicide being ‘selfish’.
Playing both sides. One one side yes, however on the other…not at all
Oh ok.
Look at me. I’m commenting…
…
Did you just….no….this is a figment.
Hey, you should’ve just let me read it jerk.
I agree with you, Death is merely a transition from being alive
to…sustaining crop life [or something, right]. I think we are too
preoccupied with immortality, the idea that somehow we can transcend
our own death [which is impossible!]. If we started to think of death as a new
state of being instead of as the end of being, we would be better equipped to
deal with the passing of our friends/loved ones.
And I am SO with you on the suicide thing. When a well adjusted individual decides
to end their lives, they are well within their rights.
You are so right. We are so stuck on wanting to stay in this “realm” we never allow ourselves to accept the transition that MUST occur. Maybe it’s because we can’t control what happens afterwards, as far as we know, or maybe because its such an unknown. Either or yes we need to learn to just embrace it as a part of our natural process of evolution. Just because no one has come back to “report” on whats on the other side we don’t want to venture there at all. I’m there with both feet! I believe if suicide wasn’t so “taboo” things would be much better off. We don’t say anything when a soldier is about to be captured and over-run by his enemy and instead of facing the enemy for torture he puts the gun to his companion then himself do we? No! We say he died with honor. So whats really the big deal for someone of feels that they have lived their life to its end, and are tired, and just wants to rest. No he’s a coward and a very selfish individual. Such is life..sad really.
Ummmm…..good job. Dark…..
As am I. Doumo!
I Completely Agree With 80% Of Your Thoughts.
Yet Some Of Your Ideas Have Loop Holes For Debate.
So, what are these loop holes you speak of?
The Facts of being forgotten
Once all the people who know of you or remember you passes away…aren’t you considered forgotten? Eventually, you will be forgotten.
I have to agree with lee. As much as we may not want to admit it, we forget people more often than not. I use my cousin as an example. He was murdered, and yea sure the first few months we, the family, were all close and morning and remembering his death, then after a while, he started phasing off into the distance. Its a sad truth. I don’t think about him as much as I used to however I still remember him for now. So it went from thinking on him a few times a month, to only a few times a year, and i know eventually won’t think on him at all. Then after I’m dead, and the loved once around me and were with he and he are gone, he will be forgotten. Such is life. Nothing to deny or even be ashamed of. Its just life. Stop fighting it!
Right. I forget about my aunt majority of the year until her birthday come around. I miss her dearly but I can’t spend my entire life mourning her and missing her. It’s not going to bring her back.
Exactly! Seems like to many are “scared” to admit that shit you forget about them. It is what it is and such is LIFE! Just accept it and move on.
Right.
