Death

[Saint DH]

That's not you living on bro.

What if you found out you were going to die, and die young at that? So now instead of facing, what you believe to be, permanent nothingness in 50+ years (distant enough in our short lifetimes to seem like nearly eternity), you must face it within 1-2 years.

Would any of this change your views? I guess my point is that it's a lot easier to say death is the end of everything, when death is, from our perspective, a long way away. It is in fact so distant, that most people our age spend little time thinking about it.
