re: How Do You Deal With Death?

I usually don’t cry much immediately-I feel numb

Same here. My great grandma passed when I was 6 and I bawled like a baby. Ever since then I haven’t really cried at a funeral, mostly just numb. The next 10-15 years will suck. I have all 4 grandparents alive and in their late 70’s and between them they have about 6-7 brothers and sisters that I was pretty close with also in their mid to late 70’s.

What helps me is knowing, that someday I’ll be right there with them. I’m not scared of death anymore. i’m just worried I’ll die prematurely from a drunk driver or idiot before I can have kids, accomplish a few goals that I have, and travel. Besides its exhausting to think about having to work everyday for eternity and deal with crappy people. Going to make the most of the rest of my 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, and hope that I can stay in good enough shape to enjoy retirement
