Death: Handling Deaths & Loss

[Lightningsnake]

Thank you very much.

When I was a child, I lived next to a cemetery for a few years. In winter, when it got dark earlier, life there was even more gloomy. There was always a strange feeling present.
As a Zevist, I realized that the strange feeling was caused by the presence of the energy of death.

Thank You High Priest! It really puts into perspective that our time here is limited, and we must make the most of it, to be with loved ones, to create new bonds, and to see the end of others. Birth and death will always remain sacred, intimate moments for every person.

This made me ask myself: what are the most primal fears that humans have?

I've always been very close to death. When I saw someone deceased as a child, I wasn't afraid; on the contrary. Unfortunately, I was influenced at home by the Abrahamic religion, which forces you to be afraid, conditioning you with movies, gossip, and making you look crazy.
I got to the point where I was literally afraid, and when someone died, not only did I feel it first, but I was also afraid they would come to me.
With the Gods, I'm finding peace in this; death is transformation. Everything is making sense again, and everything has much more value. I often wonder what my death will be like, but the more time passes, the less I fear it.
