I had never thought of the life/death thing in relation to time curiously enough. I must be so caught up in the 'now'.
I think we have to make the most of it, 'life' , because none of us knows what is next or if there even is a next. I don't think I am scared of death as such, more so of loss, of the sense of changing, of the sense that knowing something can never be again, of knowing when change is actually happening. Understanding and accepting that there is not a great deal we can do in many cases to alter circumstances helps us come to terms with difficult moments.
I do believe too that looking for and finding ( quite easily infact) something good in every day, and thinking positively really helps. It's very hard to do sometimes, but once you get into the habit it feels so natural!
And thinking on, though I am not particularly religious, I do not feel that death means it is all over, something carries on, somehow, there is more, I feel sure of it. But what form that takes...I have no idea, but it s ok, not scary at all

You heard me before
Yet you hear me again
Then I die
