Hello sehia

Most people on this site could suffer this sometimes. Sometimes it seems that it is the younger ones that are affected more often.

To be quiet honest it is something we all can do nothing about it, as basically it can happen to anyone at any time.

When I was in my teens and up to mid/late twenties it was a common thing with me and believe when I say it, in my case was a waist of time as I am going to get my pension in three months. I suppose now I could start worrying again that I will not live to draw my pension. We do not need that money on the other side, so why worry ?.

When younger it was will I meet thirty, then, forty, fifty, sixty. If I worried from eighteen to sixty, all that worrying would have been counter productive and I would have been more unhappy because of it.

We really cannot do anything about it, when we die we are dead and that is it.

We have a contract on life and on completion of your contract you are dead, only our Lord upstairs knows when you are going to be called up to fulfill our new contract when a vacancy arises. When born we await death and that sadly is life. Some people await death with an impatient wish while others grip on life with claws extended.

I have a chronic disability and sometimes I get really fed up with it as no-one really wants to help with this nasty condition. I could wish away for death or life and it makes no difference my time has not come, I do not know how long I will live. I am sitting here just after lunch typing on my laptop in reply to you I could be dead in less than ten seconds, I am just unable to do anything about it.

What would you do if you knew what time you would be expected too die, panic ???.

Life is for living, you have no real say when your time comes. Death is the journey we will always make and we just have no control on that journey.

Live your Life, let death look after itself.
