As Socrates said-
'I might hope that death is the end of all life, for if there is nothiing after death, eternity is but a single night's sleep.'
Don't think that's the exact quote, but you get the idea.
I believe there's a heaven and hell, and that at some point our souls will find their ressting place in peace.
But until that happens to me, i don't care to worry so much.
No, i don't want to die, but i don't let the fear of death get in the way of living life.
And what you said about death in your dreams is quite true. Many times, i've had a dream where i fall from a high place, or something bad happens and i know i'm going to die, and then wake up right before i thought i would.
Now, you could romanticize this and say that God has made it so that man has no perception of what true death is like, but i think it is better to say that we wake up because dreams are sensed as reality when they happen, and our animilastic instinct is overwhelming fear right before we die, which wakes us up.
Anyway, i plan to continue living for a while
