"i also do not understand (not even a little) the concept of accepting death or moving on or trusting in an afterlife or reincarnation. Not to put down anyones personal beleifs, but i have a realistic faith."

No, you don't have a realistic faith. Dieing is not a matter of faith, it's a physical reality. Show me one thing in the physical universe that does not fade. Energy isn't destroyed, but matter (which admittedly is a "heavy" form of energy) is. At least in it's temporary form. Consciousness (in some traditions) is what lasts. But this is not "material." The physical world is defined by--creation, advancing, declining, and destruction.
