hmmmm, death. Quite the question to ask. Personally, I am not religious and therefore I have nothing supporting me as far as beliefs in an afterlife or reincarnations go.
Personally, I think a few things on the subject of death. FIrst of all, I think that if you keep a positive attitude while dying (death bed..whatever) then dying has nothing bad to offer. Death is an end, after it you feel nothing (my views, no offense) and therefore it isnt in that view a bad thing, the only pain in death is that of yourself while dying or others you know. One is iuncurable but in yourself if you realise on your deathbed all the wonderful things your life has accomplished and been able to do. All the happy moments, you will truly die a happy oerson, death has no relevance therefore for yourself.
Also, A human being never really dies if he or she is remembered. I mean sure you die, but if you make an impression the world, be it as large as a cure for cancer or as small as teaching kids in a classroom every day. As long as you are remembered and have done something, you will always be living... Haha, these points are al probably hard to understand and jumbled cause I am quite tired, so make what you will.
