The phenomenon of death has inspired many movies, books, and other pieces of art. Death should not be feared because it is unavoidable and there are many beliefs that make death explainable and a good thing.
           One reason as to why death should not be feared is because it is unavoidable. Death is something that everyone has seen at least once. Whether it is on the news, a pet, a loved one , or any other place, there have been many deaths. Life should be enjoyed because death is something that will happen no matter what.
            Another reason as to why no one should for death is because of different beliefs that make death not so bad. Some believe you go to heaven, others say that you are reincarnated and others talk about ending up as a star. With all of these beliefs, one of them is  bound to be true. Death should not be feared because it is beautiful when you think about all the ways in which it is justified.
              Dying is a part of life and many have justified it in many ways which is why it should not be feared. When death is thought about it is usually feared because people don't want to waste what they have done their whole lives by dying, but that is why people should enjoy life. No one should die with regrets.

Sure it's inevitable but that doesn't mean it's not scary. People should fear death because they don't know what happens afterwards and its effect on loved ones. 
      With death comes uncertainty. According to different people many things can happen after death. A body can decompose but what happens to one's soul? Does it go to heaven? Hell? Is there an afterlife? A rebirth? Despite religious beliefs, everyone wants to know what happens when one dies. The truth is no one knows and that not knowing making it a valuable reason why people should fear it. 
      Another reason why people should fear death is our loved ones. What will happen to the loved ones we leave behind? If one has children, will they have someone to love and care for them? Will elderly family members in one's care be properly looked after? Let's not forget about the financial impact one's death will have on loved ones. Overall the effects death has upon one's loved ones are negative if one is not prepared to die, further proving how scary death is.
      In conclusion people should fear death because of it's uncertainty and effects on our loved ones. Believe it or not fearing death will help one better prepare for it. ]]> 2019-01-17 16:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321760174 Miracle Chidi miracleisthesweetest https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321761386           Ready? Tomorrow's the last day. No, actually in a second or two. No, maybe in an hour. Why so scared? Think of it as the numbness felt when the dentist applies the numbing cream on a heart-throbbing toothache. See? Much better. Although, numbing cream won't be needed if teeth were brushed and flossed every single day. Death should not be feared for, for it is unexpected and nonchalant.
          Death expresses no emotion due to the absence of existence. Most people say they're scared of death but what they actually mean is that they fear the thought of dying. The emotion fear develops when individuals retrace life experiences. If a person did not fulfill all things written on their bucket-list the lost of contentment of life startles them into panic. Death only is numb. No whispers, just silence.
          Death does not knock on the door. It rushes in and steals all the snacks out the pantry and exits. Although, at the moment becoming thieved 
       may feel scary, the snacks are gone, drawers empty.
          Death should not be frightening because it does not take time.It's instant just like that shot the doctor gives which is for a split second. If life is lived till its fullest with no regrets, the experience of dying will be less fearsome.

People should live there life rather than always being worried about the next pay check, or trying to get a point across. People should not fear death because people are suppose to make life enjoyable, and individuals should not fear death because it's unknown. 
 People should not fear death because life should  be enjoyable. For example,individuals tend to worry about things that are really not that important because at the end of everything when people die that sit, They don't have to worry about loans,homes,or any pain that they were going through . This shows that when just living your life people are able to make the best out of it such as discovering new places(travel) , and explore nature .
    People should not fear death because death is unknown . For example, people don't really know what's in heaven or how heaven is they just know what individuals tell them , and people don't know exactly when they will die , or people don't even know what what will take place the next day or anytime . Due to this people should not fear death because if you worry about it your always going to continue to fear it . 
Individuals should not be scared of death because life should be amusing, and death is unknown . Death shouldn't be something anyone should be thinking about rather than enjoying life ,and appreciating what you have. ]]> 2019-01-17 16:25:22 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321764304 Gerardo Platas https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321767121   "Live life to the fullest because no one knows if they're going to wake up for tomorrow". No one has a clue of how they're going to die except for the one force behind it all which is death and it's an ominous feeling everyone gets. People should fear death because no one's certain of what happens and they'll be leaving their life behind.
  Death should be feared by people because no one knows for what what comes next. Many people believe that death shouldn't be feared but instead celebrated because the person is finally free to relax or possibly even be reborn. But that hasn't been proven to be true, so what if you die and you end up going to a fiery hell or even worse you just die and nothing happens; you and your memory are just destroyed by the ultimate killer known as time, Time. Humanity will never be certain of comes after death so they'll always have a fear of it.
  Death should be feared by people because they'll be leaving their life behind. Many have worked hard in life to get the things they have now, so to just have it taken from them is very frightening. Death is a very powerful thing that just takes what it wants, when it wants it without caring about the repercussions.
  Death is a powerful force that is not entirely understood, which is very menacing, bringing much fear with it. Having a fear of death shouldn't stop anyone from enjoying life. "Death is what gives life meaning".]]> 2019-01-17 16:29:37 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321767121 Victoria Garcia https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321798473       What will happen when we die? We know what happens to our body but it's the part of the being that is asking this question that were so curious about. It is highly speculated as to what happens after death to our soul, but whatever they may believe in be it reincarnation, or eternal life in Heaven they all fundamentally believe that good behavior will be rewarded in in the afterlife. No, people should not fear death because if they've lived a righteous life and dedicated their life to unselfish things they are going to go to a better place.  
      Death seems scary but it really isn't nobody is ready to die of course we'd like to think there's a right time for it to happen but there will always be something else to do but when time is up, we can be ready to enter the next journey by being the best version of ourselves. Truly that's all that can be asked of us. Pascals wager states that if we believe in a God we can't see and he is real we will receive the infinite gain of heaven, and if he does not exist and we believe it is an insignificant loss it doesn't mean pain it just means nothing. If we do not believe in a God and he is not real, it is an insignificant gain because nothing is no great gain. But if we do not believe in God and he turns out to be real it is an infinite loss because heaven is lost to them. To apply this philosophy to this topic if this fundamental principle of being a good person (being kind and selfless) ultimately there would be no infinite loss should we choose to live honorably. 
         I know it may sound strange, but death can actually make us better people, it can help us develop better eating habits to live longer and try to be kind because of the fear of death. A study done over whether terminally-ill people are sadder showed that the actually terminally-ill peoples blogs contained more positive than those who were not and were pretending to be sick. Showing that people view death more positively who were going to die. So ultimately if anything death whenever it may come is a good thing because if anything it makes us better people so we shouldn't fear death. 
       In Conclusion, death is a very abstract subject with many interpretations but what they all have in common is that if one lives a life based on principle & good morals there is nothing to fear about death. Besides it is better to worry about what we do with our lives & the difference we make in the world rather than what will happen to us when we die we should care for others.

A person shouldn't worry when they die until its clear that their time is almost up. People should not fear death because it will stop them from living their life normally & also if they didn't die(just a thought) most of his/her loved ones would be dead & him/her would be alone.
People shouldn't be afraid of death because it would prevent them from living their life normally. For example, picture a person living a normal life, having fun, distracted, etc. Now this person out of nowhere thinks about his/her death, what it feel like?, how will it happen?, will it hurt?, will i suffer?, when?. These questions, the more the person ask themselves, the more paranoid they will be. The person will become isolated in other to stay safe. Therefor, preventing them from living a normal life.
The fictional power of immortality would sound like a blessing in the real world.For people who fear death wish they wouldn't experience it, don't think of the consequences of not dying. If someone miraculously or somehow acquired "immortality" and didn't die(not possible), then more than likely after a couple of years his/her loved ones(family,friends,etc) would pass away leaving the person without family/friends. People should not fear death because death is better than being dead with loved ones than living and being lonely. 
  Death is not to be feared, although the thought of dying is scary, its better to live life with as much happiness as possible. Live life with no regret.]]> 2019-01-17 18:20:11 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321834911 Estefany Espinoza👍💕 estefanye8998 https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321945902   Death is the grand finale of this act we call life. Dying can be a very scary thing, but, should death really be the thing we fear? People shouldn't fear death since it is an inevitable event coming to all living things.
  Death shouldn't be our primary fear. Many people have fears of heights, spiders, the dark, etc. However, the main purpose of life is to live it the best you can. When taking a test, one must do their best to sure they have a good end result. Whether one believes in an afterlife or not, one must choose to live their best to receive the best reward afterward, whether it be an afterlife or how our lives affects our loved ones.  
  Additionally, death should be a motivator for us. Death is a time of ending. If it weren't for death, one would have no purpose. Death gives experiences on this planet weight knowing that we can only have so many - and to the optimist, this means going out and having as many positive experiences as time allows. To the selfless and the gregarious, this inspires them to go out and be as positive and make a lasting influence in as many lives and for as long as possible. This also explains why immortals in fiction are often portrayed as passionless since their lives have no motivation.
  Overall, the thought of death shouldn't frighten us. All that begins must come to an end. Must one not be fearful of dying, but inspired to make this borrowed time on earth the best one can make it. Everyone on this earth has an expiration date. No one can avoid it. It'll claim every human one day. ]]> 2019-01-17 22:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321945902 Linh R https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321956187  "The tragedy of life is not death... but what we let die inside of us while we live."-Norman Cousins. Nobody wants to die at a young age, nobody wants to die at all. If a person found out that they were about to die and have little time left what would they do? People should be afraid of death because they will be able to accomplish something and will forgive themselves.
      People should be afraid of death because they will be able to accomplish something. If people found out they are dying and have a few months left they use as much time as possible to fulfill something they wanted to do. For example, when a person makes a bucket list, they make a list of things they want to do in their life and want to accomplish in the future. Go on a trip to Paris, skydiving, or even learning a new language, they give purpose in life and it gives something to focus. Even if they don't complete their list, they were able to do something that will be in their memories forever and feel proud that they did it.
      Another thing about it is that they will forgive themselves. People have things that they regret, they try to make amends to the people they affected. For example, when a person is about to die they try to reconnect to someone they cared about like a mom, dad, brother, sister, etc. They try to make things right about what they did in their past

Just like life, the game makes its players go through a set of challenges. Expect when individuals die in games they get a chance to try again, but in reality, there is no "revive" or "start over" button. People tend to fear death because they can't cope with the idea of not existing. Individuals shouldn't let their fear of death control their life because death is inevitable and all burdens go away. 
       Death is an impenetrable force that no matter how hard someone tries, they can't overcome it. Depending on what people believe there might be a metaphorical "life after death" but what is certain is that everyone meets their demise some point in time. In the tv show Lucifer, Cain is punished with immortality by God. As centuries went by, Cain's immortality is what simultaneously protects and destroys him. When he finally regains his mortality, Cain begins to fear his demise. On the brink of death, Cain realized death shouldn't be feared because it is a normal part of life. Without death, there is no life because death gives everyone a reason to live. To fear death is foolish because every organism on Earth experiences it.
        After death, there is simply nothing. No burdens. No problems. No difficulties. The issues that are present in an individual's life disappear because the person doesn't exist anymore. This is why suicide rates are on the rise in South Korea and other Asian countries. Their society's emphasis on education and intelligence pressures the citizens so severely that they end up taking their own life.  Dying is the absolute end of everything and to some people, it's a desirable solution to all their problems. 
        Conclusively, death shouldn't be feared but accepted as an ingrained part of existence. Death is a possible end all be all resoultion to all of life's struggles. It should be seen as a reason people should cherish their life and live it to its fullest. ]]> 2019-01-18 03:43:31 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321989916 Clarence Moore trueprodigy03 https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/321992424    Death. The ultimate endgame. When people go about their day to day life they are likely to face a lot of obstacles. Whether it be a flat tire or a test they might have forgotten to study for. In the end, though, you get over them. Death on the other hand is different. It is one obstacle that can't avoided or overcome. That doesn't necessarily mean that it has to be feared because . By fearing the inevitable, you live your life in fear.
   While the thought of death itself is scary; the thought of pain being involved, and whether or not the death will be quick or slow. None of that truly matters as long as you lived a fulfilling life. Death is the end, but life is the true thing that matters and that should be worried about. People don't truly fear death or what happens after when you die. They actually fear dying without having amounted to anything.
   We all know that our life has a time limit. The fear of that timer running out is irrational. Life is full of so much potential. MLK, George Washington, and Albert Einstein. All men who lived ad died. It was what they did before the died that made there worth living and death being a fulfilling end to a life well lived.

The beautiful smile on one's husband's,wife's,uncle's,aunt's,brother's,sister's,grandma's and/or grandpa's face. You should fear death because thinking about death really scares some people. And if u don,t fear death let me tell why one should be. Do you fear death? Well, you should fear death.The thoughts about what happens after death.If one is religious one may struggle with the thought about your life choices and where would they take u after life.One may wonder where would i go, "KINGDOM OF HEAVEN,"OR "THE PITS OF HELL."
 The thought of where one might go after death is something some struggle and maybe even hate to talk about.Some people who may say they live to the fullest 
might say,"Oh I'm ready to die at anytime,"but truth be told no one wants to die ,no one wants to think about leaving there families and friends. So one might re concerned that thought. When think about the unknown. There are billions of different ways you may die, so think of the possibility that u can die at anytime and anyhow may really strike fear into peoples heart and soul. When one is thinking about death they begin to worry about things,like who would take care of grandma,or who would walk the dog and/or the most common one who would take care of my family. When thinking about leaving everything and everyone behind it becomes to depress to talk about.Knowing that ones day is coming no matter what that one can't stop the day that one must die and that won't change or stop it strikes fear ,sadness , and fear of death. One may have the thought of would anyone of their family members even care about them or even remember them.One day they can be talking that person and a few years later that person is no longer talked about.One should fear death and the unknowns of ones death.Now do u fear death???

    We like predictability it has helped people survive for as long as we existed but death is the only thing that we've never been able to predict. At first it seems like a good thing because we all expect to have a peaceful death after living a fulfilling life but just how true is that. We can die doing anything and we can't redict fully how doing one thing will affect everything else. It can be controlled or predicted and is simply something that we can't beat or hopr to predict.
    Another reason to fear death is due to how little we know about what happens after death. We assume heaven and hell will be our final destination but how can we know this. No matter how much we want to believe it ultimately we simply don't know. Even if it is real we can't tell where we'll end up. No one knows what will happen and this just adds to how terrifying death can be.

When we understand it we grow wiser about the topic and when it happens we should have accomplished something even if it means nothing to the world.
  When people fear death they really only fear what happens in their afterlife nobody really know what happen. For a lot of people that ive talked to say that they fear of dying because they don't know what happens afterward. This shows how most people fear what will happen afterward and not at the moment.
   To add on people shouldn't worry about dying instead focus on what you want to accomplish in life. This will help you in doing a lot more and also to have more fun because you only have one life. For example, a lot more people are working but also trying to have fun to balance out their life which leads them to have a "great life" when having a great life people accomplish more.

Now, an individual who didn't set goals in life and didn't go to school will have to start working more of their adolescent years to have things to survive. But for what, just working their butt off literally up untill death. Once realizing in our death bed all of the wasted years of going to school and working while not cherishing all of those years will be emotionally painful. 
   Additionally, death makes many people appreciate ones existence and the existenence of their loved ones. If it wasn't for death, no one would fear not having enough time to spend time wit their loved ones. For example, I have a deep affection of my 2-year old sister. I love her as if she was my own daughter, many of my family memeberseven say that she is my supposed daughter because I alwyas care for her. She loves me and I love her; she's always on my mind. Everytime she sees me I always see a big smile across her face and soon as shee sees me, she yells out my name in excitement. Even though she has a long way to grow, that thought of her growing up and going from a toddler to a young adult, that devestates me. And what devestates me the most is that as soon as I am at the brink of death, once it's my time, all of those thoughts will soon disappear, never to be thought about again. 
In the end, having the thought of death in the back of one-self's mind is scary, but also guides us to better do things for our selves and spend more bonding time with family before it too late. One has to live their life like there's no tomorrow because then we'll regret what we didnt do; we have to do things before our time comes.]]> 2019-01-21 16:02:29 UTC https://padlet.com/chelsea_achane/period7/wish/322717312
