 fear of leaving life
Thanks for the article Erin. I don't fear death anymore, though I definitely used to. I now fully believe my consciousness will carry on after my time on Earth is over and I'm actually looking forward to experiencing what comes next.
My issue is that I don't want to leave my current life. I would fully resist death not out of fear of what's coming, but for what I would leave behind. I want to experience my relationship with my wife getting better and see my kids grow up and be part of their lives. I want to experience my full potential in this life.
To have my human existence cut short would be utterly heartbreaking. So that's what I fear. But hey, when I'm 103 years old...bring death on!
