i'll just have to watch the people that love me the most die

[thorns]

my grandma, grandpa, mom, dad. if I stay alive, the ones who really care about me will inevitably get sick from age and die in front of my eyes. I can't stand existing

 

[geneticdiff]

Yeah i mean unlucky ig

In that case do a *genuine* religionmaxx. It's the only way you can stay grounded with those thoughts. there's a way to be healthy while delving deep into spirituality

I still dread the day it happens though, but at least I know that people don't know shit about the cycles of life and death.

but do you actually believe in religion?

I do believe in life after death yes

 

[thorns]

I do believe in life after death yes

can you explain me why?

 

[geneticdiff]

but do you actually believe in religion?

Religion can be angything, you can believe that you're the center of the universe and that you're special, like a simulation or something. Not even a bad way to think, since it helps cope + keeps you hopeful. As long as you believe in something

 

[Cuervo]

can you explain me why?

Idk, I always thought about it and since I was a child I just knew. It's a mysterious topic so it's not like I can give you a definitive answer

You dont need religion to not be shattered from the death of relatives
If you purify yourself from the selfish thoughts, you will see that it means nothing for them
The thing that makes you sad is you having to live without their presence, and if you stop and think objectively, death means nothing from the eyes of the deceased person, theyre simply not alive anymore, into an eternal void/afterlife

So what are you going to do about It?

That's your opinion but I respect it

Thanks i respect yours too

cry until I eventually distract myself from this thought and keep living life

What grounds me sometimes is, live each day presently, for you can die BEFORE your parents.

I understand your point completely. it comes from the crippling fear I have of losing the ones i'm 100% sure that really love me and would do anything for me. I don't wanna be alone, but that's how i'll inevitably end up, unless I marry and have kids. but I don't feel that I have the mental stability to have a family from past relationships experiences, therefore I associate my relatives death with being alone forever, and that's why it makes me so depressed.

they are probably the only reason i'm still alive

There is no reason to be sad about death of a person mane
If you put the focus on the dead from yourself you will see its literally meaningless
Ask urself why it would make you sad, i doubt you could find another reason than you having to continue life without their presence
My point is its selfish and if u love them so much you might as well think if its as bad as u think it is for them
Its human nature tho u dont always have to be rational about things and im sure i would be affected horribly if a loved one of mine died too as much as i want to view it from a rational perspective

 

[Cuervo]

Have faith my dude, your love for them is pretty much real, and it can go beyond what you could comprehend.

 

[noodlelover]

I honestly feel bad for people that are loved, for this reason.

half of my relatives are already dead and im only 19... its hard for me to accept too but atleast i have my brother who is my age and will hopefully live as long or if not longer then me

when facing mortality, I only care about theirs. i'm not afraid of dying 1% of what i'm afraid of watching they die

I wish I had a brother my age or younger, i'm the end of the line. hope you two stay well and close to each other
