This is the first post on the forum i have ever made altho i have been a member for a long time so bare with me.
The question i put out is.... What is death to you, is it a release, is it a damnation, is it just a cycle that ends with a replacement child.
To me it is a release from a world of hate, and at the same time a curse because i will no longer be around to change the world(if at all possible). I am a cold person with not many feelings so i would not be leaving love behind... thats it for me... What are your veiws?
Deep question.
To tell you the truth, I hope something happens, just to click off like a tv, and it all be over would be a great disapointment.
I don't want to be born again, and have to go through this life another time starting over from infancy.
I hope I get to do as I please, roam where I want, and have the ability to do things that my earthly body cannot do.
I guess it all ties into what you think heaven is, but death to me is hopefully would be peace, and almost a "free ticket" to see all the sites and ride all the rides.
I'm not afraid of death. Maybe there is something like paradise or hell, maybe not. Why should I fear? I can't do anything with it...
I rather -like- the thought of reincarnation. It brings hope that we'll be with the one we are meant to be with in the end, and continue on from there.
It also gives faith that there will be, indeed, 'more to life' as they say-- in fact, several of them. I've always wanted to travel extensively-- who's to say I won't in the next life seeing as this one thus far is failing to do so?
I find that comforting.
I'm not afraid of dying... It's the thought that I have to be present at the time that bothers me... - Woody Allen.
I like that quote. But I dont fear my own death. For some that can be a problem (i work for a criminal defense lawyer.. i see it everyday).
I think death is a release. A payment of sorts... like the Fates telling you "Ok... you've done well enough, you deserve this *poof*.." and you go to your souls personal "holding cell" of an eternal rest untill they find something else for you to do...
Course there are those few times where the Fates kinda look atcha cock-eyed and say "You know you dun fucked up, right?"... and spank you by giving you some really jacked up life the next time 'round....
Karma's a bitch....

i believe daeth is only a new beginning. if we are sent back to our life it is because we have not found our destiny. once we find our destiny we will go home to wherever that may be.
---you are not alone.
Death to me is well..........................just inevitable really got no illusions of fluffy white clouds or fire and brimstone jus nothin but when a friend dies.......................................................................you get the idea
I feel some part of us must travel on.....I have no fear of death tho for i don't beleive in hell.....except southern alberta...that was my hell....and I ecsaped it's vile clutches...but i cannot allow myself the beleif that poof out go the lights is what occurs
otherwise where the hell do these annoying ghosts come from
Death is the start of something new.....though not an end to the old.
Death is a release from annoyances of life like love and hate. I guess I see it as suddenly getting balance.
the stage in which we are in now is only a larva stage. the average human only uses 10% of there total brain power, i beleave if we exceed an enormus amount of energy and power we will grow, perhaps into a further stage. but such a think is not easely acheaved. only one person has done such, some even refer to him as god. what ever you call him, i think thats how he got there. he hatched from his larva stage after death. like the power we build up will determin where and what we grow or further evolve into. and for many, human is the last stage. but for those who have aquired enough power by the time limit, they evolve. evolve into what ever there power portrays them as. so to me, death is the name of your personal time limit. if you do not have enough, you can not continue and you have to start over. simple as that.
It is a new beginning, a death of the old and a starting of the new. Death doesn't scare me because I know it isn't the end of everything. I welcome it, only not before I've done everything that I am meant to in this life.

So it seems that most of people who responder beleive death is just the beginning of a sort of higher level of life thanks for the input
To me Death is a release from a world of judgemenntalniss,narrow mindedness,betrayaol, and backstabbing,which leads to hatebut at the very same time a curse because I will no longer be here to change the world for the better of all creatures,which is what i am striving to to 24/7 that's my take !
death would be when my friends or family could not reach me, but i could see and hear them, and also not being able to hear anything. sound and music is my life, without it life is meaningless.
Death is the singel moment betwean this life and the next.
death is a place to where u can excape this horrible world and live with the one u adore in wit of anarchy
Good question.
In my thoughts, it is easiest for me to think of death as being simply the next step on this journey. It will be interesting to see what actually comes next.
To me death is the ultimate goal in life. To get away from this cruel world where hearts are made to be broken
