When I was younger one day I was thinking about death and I suddenly truly understood the concept of nothing after death. When you die, the entire universe might as well go with you. Once you spend enough time with that realization, you’ll also realize it’s pointless to fear it. Or at least, I did. Hopefully it’ll work for you too.
Luckily, this is the epitome of that Epicurus quote:
Death will be, so we will cease to be. Sounds like he
iswas whistling past the graveyard with that quote…And when you do, you no longer have to worry about it. In fact, you can’t.
Not much of a consoling thought to me.
