How are you going to die?

[ksmybuttons]

In a pensive mood and a couple of threads have given me my meditation topic of the day.

I am going to think on dying. Not death, but the actual process of dying. I may not have the opportunity to know if I am dying, but if I do know, how do I want to handle it?

Deny it and pretend it is not going to happen?
Ignore it?
Fight it?
Accept it and turn it into a party?

This requires an answer of a combination of a couple of your ideas. If I was to get sick when I am the age I am now,with my kids still in need of a mother,I would fight like hell to be well,not cured but well enough to make it till my children could take care of themselves. If it happens later in life,after I have lived and the kids were okay,then I would accept it and have a big party,as long as they supply me with pain pills,so that I would feel no pain.

I would like to die with honour, maybe in combat or saving someone's life. But if ill I would fight the bit out, I'm a stubborn bugger!

One thing about dieing, I would also like to die with no regrets

 

[MidnightsBlue]

I'd accept it and turn it into a party!

My mother just died. She wasn't sick. She just went to sleep and didn't wake up. There were fresh baked cookies and home made pastry at her house when we got there. She always took care of us kids.

My mother-in-law fought. Liver cancer. There is no survival from liver cancer. Her family wouldn't admit or talk to her about her dying and neither would she. It made it so much harder.

My lover (when I was 29) died so very sick. His family isolated him in the ICU, away from his friend family and I was the only "outsider" allowed. Everyone was so aghast and had such a hard time dealing with it because of their reaction. He was never going to get off of the respirator because his lungs were blown so he eventually pulled out the tube and died.

I want my family to know how I want to die so they can help me. Now I just have to decide what that will be.

Dylan Thomas said it

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Honestly, I don't know how I will die, all I know is that I will be taking 20 people down with me.

 

[sexy-girl]

whooooo, I ain't gettin' on any areo planes with you.

 

[paganangel]

there is a time to ponder this question.

for me...this aint it.

i refuse to wonder how i'll die until i've made a difference. death should be the last great act of a man...not the first.

 

[juicylips]

I am pretty much in spontaneous combustion mode now.

So I will probably die in the middle of an earthshattering orgasm.

Being fucked to death is the only way I would want to go and I think I will take him with me

[KinkyKandy]

Heres how you handle it...don't worry and party! You will never have a life if all you do is worry about death.

I agree with that. I want to have made an impact on someone before I go. And if there is any way possible I want to continue on after my body is no longer useful. I want my conscienceness to go on. Kind of like what Brian Lumley explored in his Necroscope series. After you die, say you were a scientist trying to find a cure for cancer, even though your body is gone, your mind continues to try and find a cure. You just need someone to tell if you ever find it so the world can share it.

Gawd that was funny.

Appropriate for this thread I think.

 

[PHANTOM5875]

I'd like to die surprised! and if I can get a couple of laughs on the way down to the floor, all the better!

 

[Moridin187]

If I knew I was gonna die I'd have a massive party, get laid, then go find a nice spot high up on some mountain cliff to watch the sun set.

 

[TheSaxMan]

I agree with Moridin, I'd want the last thing that I saw to be something beautiful, someone I loved, or a sunset, or a view of the beauty of the earth. There are some cultures that believe that you are stuck in the moment that you died for all eternity. I may not believe it, but I think that if I felt complete and inspired in the moment that I die, it would be perfect.

How should I know how I'm going to die, I haven't even read my death certificate yet?

If my life is any indication, I'll procrastinate.

Seriously,: My dad died when I was a kid, and he was 33.(cancer).
I worked through that stuff a long time ago. I never got to be a teenager with a sense of immortality, because death is something I expect. It can happen to anybody anytime.

Death , like any other expected eventuality is just something I'll take in stride. I don't live in fear or doubt.

I'm gunna die

I'm gunna die if I find out I'm Patient1's half brother.
