> Im not afraid.. i often wonder. I hear people talking about how they want to do everything possible before they die. Why? after their gone who is really going to care.
> it takes a lot of work to be in a body...once the body is gone you can't be here, or walk around, or have a life on this earth, or. ect...it's a special experience that we can learn from and grow from. It sounds like you are under a lot of pain right now.
> I sit in my room often wondering.. whose going to care when i am gone?
>
You are really going to care when you are gone. Put yourself back into the center of your life. It's yours and it's unique, you are having a very different experience than anyone else because it's yours. You are the most important person in your life...
>
I have a hard time trusting people. I don't want to open up to them, i don't want to get burned.
>
I wouldn't want to open up if being burned is all I saw coming. That's self preservation. I don't give my trust easily...people have to earn it. It takes time to get to know me....I don't let people in easily. Trust is earned.
>will they mean it?
> Let's reverse the question, if your friends were suddenly dead, would you miss them?
> Death... are you ready to deal with it?
Life are you ready to deal with this? I think you are very much alive and understand why you ponder death, I hope that you can love and enjoy your life a little bit more. You are loveable, you know.
