i'm myrna, i come from Indonesia. i wish i can share my thoughts here and i hope it will useful for anyone.
View all articles by Myrna WulandariHere i want to share what i see about death. For many of us death has become fear, we are afraid of death.
I think why we feel afraid of something is because when we feel afraid, we don't know what will happen and we can't make sure that something we are afraid of, can proceed exactly as we want. We are afraid of something that unpredictable.
In death, we also can't guess what will happen. We don't know what will happen after we die, we don't know if there is a life after we die, we don't know if there is heaven or hell, and we are afraid of it. We are afraid of something that out of our reach.
You see, how our mind controling us. We must be sure of something, we must be sure of what will happen in the future then we can feel comfortable. We creating our own fear. I also think many of phobia created by our mind and become illness. An illness that we created ourself.
and so is death.. we created our own fear.. fear of death. We are too afraid to loose this body, we are too afraid to leave this world. Someday all of us will die, it is just the matter of time. We can't deny death.
Then why we should be afraid of death?Everyone will have this experience. I don't know what will happen if i die, but why i must bother? we never know the future, we never know what will happen tomorrow, we even don't know what will happen in the next second. Instead we think about our fear of death, why we can't just accept it?
I want to share my simple method to accepting death. Before i go to sleep, the things i do is, praying, and i relaxing my body, feel all of it one by one, gave love for them and thank them because they always do whatever i want. Then the last thing is, i take a deep breath, close my eyes and say "Tonight i am ready to die".
This is a good way to accepting death, because i think if i am really die than i already accept my death. But if i am not ready to die, death will come to me, i can't reject it. So why i should not be ready?

Yes Myrna you are right. I always say I am ready to die next minute and thats how I live without fear. Many times I see here death is like tabu no body even want to talk about it. Why not we can accept death when its a naked truth and ultimate goal of life. I have wrote about it sometimes also in diary. We have to be ready always to welcome death only this is the way we can live life without fear.
