Not afraid by dying,
not afraid of unknown,
but afraid of what I see,
the torment itself is inexplicable.
Don't even fear for the beginning and end
because both are inter-related with each other.
Be afraid of the process itself, because I have strong premonitions
that I could believe very much.
Death is always so near to me.
The hereditary diseases might come claim
me at the moment.
But I could not stop for Death. . .
Thanks, MimiZ.
I say. Happy is the one who dies without thinking of death. Sudden death is happy.
The death of young people is cruel in this cosmos. So the old Greek phrase says:
He whom the gods love dies young. (The original is Middle age Greek in my memory *Edit).
But when one has aged enough, or not enough, but no hope and expectation in this cosmos,
the weight of the memories of life, living is too heavy. We forget many things.
But we cannot forget that there were many miserable matters and we forgot them.
Then, dying is the last salvation of our life. We can die. We do not live forever.
This is gratia, salvation of Leben. Here is the death near my own. It is rather happy.
At the beginning of life, we were vague consciousness, and at the end we will be vague consciousness.
Death is naught in the view point of Ego-consciousness. Death is total Darkness.
But after the death, there will be unknown little light. Our Ego will be collapsed.
But something dreams a dream by the shining water. Thus the end is the beginning.
Death is not the hole of dark Naught. We will return back to our Heimat.
We will be rest forever. Till again we will be aware some new light.
Aeon after Aeon. And our life or the memories of our living will have different meanings.
Aeon may accept our pains and shames, all the regrets and joys and sorrows.
I want to go away and meet with Aeon.

One whom the god loves dies young. --> He whom the gods love dies young.
